This study aimed to investigate the impact of gamification on students' learning outcomes in a higher secondary school subject, specifically focusing on the topic of Morphology. A quasi-experimental research design was employed, involving an experimental group that received gamified instruction using Kahoot and a control group that received…

This study examines the relationship between game-based student response systems (GSRS) and college student academic performance. GSRS, such as Kahoot!, are emerging in classrooms as a "fun" way to review course material and test student understanding. Its increasing usage begs the question of its effectiveness for students. Therefore,…

Marketing education has undergone a significant shift toward experiential learning and interactive pedagogical approaches. This article demonstrates the potential of educational escape rooms (EERs) as a novel and innovative tool for enhancing student engagement in marketing education. Building on the literature on experiential learning, game-based…

This bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the research trajectory on "Game-based Mobile Learning" based on Scopus-indexed publications from 2006 to 2024.

Human Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) courses are a requirement for many students pursuing a healthcare career. These courses tend to have lower success rates than other entry-level courses because students are not adequately prepared for the dedication, self-discipline, and studying required for success. This problem is exacerbated for students…

Understanding homeostasis is foundational to biology; yet students often hold persistent misconceptions about its mechanisms and complexity. To address these challenges, we developed a collaborative, card-based board game in which players act as components of the endocrine and physiological systems to help a character named Bill enact homeostasis…

Educational geoscience games have been increasing in popularity because they promote learning through amusement and encourage students to engage with topical material and each other. Here we describe a new board game, "Reef Survivor", and its use as an instructional tool in undergraduate classes. The educational objective is to teach…

Game-based learning, which includes non-digital and digital games, highlights the benefits of games in terms of players' learning and engagement. Whereas contemporary research focuses more on digital than non-digital game-based learning, more studies shall compare the effects between the two types of game-based learning and their integration. This…

Play is crucial to children's development. With the prevalent use of digital technologies, children and young adults are seen playing games more often and longer on digital devices. How should teachers capitalize the advantages of games in class, without inducing more health risks or problems for children? To achieve this goal, teachers need…

The purpose of this qualitative exploratory case study was to explore how The Sims could be used to assist L1 English speakers in learning L2 Russian verbs of motion through completing in-game tasks in pairs while speaking Russian. English and Russian verbs of motion encode manner and path differently, and L2 Russian motion verbs use a variety of…

Creativity has been proven to be a core competitiveness in the twenty-first century. Although many experimental studies have confirmed that game learning can improve creativity, some studies have contrary results. Currently, there are very few, and primarily incomplete, meta-analyses integrating experimental studies of educational gaming's impact…
