Ricardo Marcos; André Gomes; Marta Santos; António Coelho – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
Histology is a preclinical subject transversal in medical, dental, and veterinary curricula. Classical teaching approaches in histology are often undermined by lower motivation and engagement of students, which may be addressed by innovative learning environments. Herein, we developed a serious game approach and compared it with a classical…

Pessoa, Pamella Teles; Palanch, Adrianne Christine; Casale, Karina Reche; Montrezor, Luís Henrique; Taxini, Camila Linhares; Azevedo, Maria Antonia; Marcondes, Fernanda Klein – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
In health courses, the students must be familiar with the effects of intravenous solutions on cell volume and function, a topic where there can be learning difficulties and misunderstandings. Since educational games can assist in understanding complex concepts, we created a game relating solution osmolarity and tonicity to red blood cell volume…

Ibrahim Dahlstrom-Hakki; Elizabeth Rowe; Jodi Asbell-Clarke; Mia Almeda – Computer-Based Learning in Context, 2024
With the prominence of assessments in education, there is an increasing need to create new forms of assessment that more accurately reflect the needs of the entire student population, particularly neurodivergent learners. To address this challenge, this paper explores the potential for using eye tracking data in a game-based learning environment…

Kênia M. de Oliveira; Ana Clara de G. Fernandes; Gabriela M. Soares; Joel Alves da Silva Jr.; Everardo M. Carneiro; Helena C. L. Barbosa – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
The teaching of physiology plays a crucial role in the education of health care professionals. However, traditional approaches to physiology classes in undergraduate health courses in Brazil often result in passive student participation. Research has shown that active methodologies are more effective in the learning process. In this study, we…

Justina Hui Ru Tan; Wee Han Ang; Maw Lin Foo – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Game-based learning has been shown to promote active learning. We have designed a card game termed CountQuest, played on the online platform Zoom, to facilitate the revision of the effective atomic number (EAN) concept for metal complexes previously taught in lectures. This game was played by undergraduate and graduate chemistry students during…

Chatchadaporn Pinthong; Natpawee Poungkaew; Titapa Ampaipis; Jirapipat Thanyaphongphat; Panu Pimviriyakul; Somchart Maenpuen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic prevented students from attending on-site classes. Consequently, their face-to-face interactions decreased. Thus, it became crucial to design learning activities to enhance the motivation of students and inspire them to achieve the desired learning outcomes during the long disruption of on-site classes. Mobile…

Wawan Wahyudi Efendi; A. Atiqoh; Hari Karyono – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2023
Many ferns learning in higher education were organized conventionally and relied only on textbooks. Moreover, it is not in accordance with the characteristics or learning styles of Generation Z (Gen Z). This research aims to produce Pteridophyte Smart Cards (PSC) as a learning media by integrating cards containing real images of ferns with QR Code…

Priya Darshini Gunalan; Zainun Mustafa – Journal of Science and Mathematics Education in Southeast Asia, 2023
This study aims to develop and test the BioXpedia Board Game (BXBG) prototype for teaching Cell Division in Biology. This research was based on the ADDIE model, a sample of 80 was chosen randomly among the Biology pre-service teachers from a local university. Based on the responses of the preliminary studies and literature reviews, a prototype was…

Teng, Yuan-Yu; Chou, Wen-Chi; Cheng, Meng-Tzu – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
This study contributed to the current body of literature on game-based learning by investigating the way playing an educational game, "Humunology," affected learning about the immune system and examining further the association between game immersion and visual attention distribution. A total of 79 undergraduate and graduate students…

Barnes, Rebecca Louise – Journal of Biological Education, 2022
Games can help learners of all ages retain knowledge and build skills such as critical thinking. As such, they could be a useful tool in supporting practical training at the university level. This paper describes the development, use, and evaluation of a card game based on protein purification techniques, for a large cohort of undergraduates…

Wiets Botes – European Journal of STEM Education, 2024
Preservice teachers who are specialising in the teaching of the subject natural science at a primary school level, ought to demonstrate the ability to present lessons that provoke a joyful yet meaningful educational experience amongst learners. One such approach that was taken, was when natural science preservice teachers were tasked with…

Erlina; Dylan P. Williams; Chris Cane; Hairida; Maria Ulfah; Azwa F. Wafiq – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2024
The range of abstract concepts encountered when learning chemistry and the inability of students to make connections between the macroscopic, sub-microscopic, and symbolic representations, used in chemistry teaching, are believed to be the main reasons for students' difficulty when learning chemistry. Prediction and determination of molecular…

Minjoon Kouh – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
An introductory physics course may be run like a video game, where students have an almost unlimited number of attempts to demonstrate their competencies through a sequence of zero-penalty assessments until the end of a semester. Each checkpoint is conducted as a 10-minute, one-on-one oral interview with the instructor, and students are not…

Antonio Va´zquez-Lo´pez; Joaqui´n Artigas-Arnaudas; Javier Bedmar – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
Herein we propose the implementation of an "escape room" activity to reinforce chemistry-related concepts for students of the Bachelor of Arts and Fashion. In this work, a combined online and offline activity is developed, easily adaptable to different environments. The online activity consists of 5 blocks of multiple-quiz questions…

Avargil, Shirly – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2022
Learning through games in general and educational escape-rooms in particular requires participants to be creative and critical thinkers, work in collaboration with others, formulate an array of thinking strategies, and be familiar with media and technology. A specially designed chemistry-themed escape-room was built as an alternative learning and…
