Students typically find research methods and statistics classes intimidating. In particular, learning different types of data measurement and operationalization can take significant time and practice to understand. Utilizing a pedagogical approach that turns a party game into a fun exercise, students collaboratively learn to operationalize…

This article focuses on empirically analyzing the final products designed by 147 academics from 11 countries who participated in an international open education movement workshop by answering the research questions "What are the techno-pedagogical components of the products designed by the participants to encourage the open educational…

Purpose: This paper aims to examine how gamification components affect training outcomes through intrinsic or extrinsic motivation (IM and EM), drawing on the self-determination motivation theory. Design/methodology/approach: In this study, survey method has been used to analyse the hypotheses and objective of the research. A total of 260 surveys…

Gamification in education presents a number of benefits that can theoretically facilitate higher engagement and motivation among students when learning complex, technical concepts. As an innovative, high-potential educational tool, many educators and researchers are attempting to implement more effective gamification into undergraduate coursework.…

Responding to both recent interest in sound within qualitative education research and sound studies literature that conceptualizes sound as a posthuman technology, we use this paper to explore the following research questions: How does sound both enact and unveil posthuman learning ecologies? And how can education scholars engage sound within…

Creativity mindset (CM), grit, and self-determination have been defined as critical motivational variables affecting learners' self-efficacy. Therefore, this study pioneers the examination of the relationship between these motivational variables and creativity self-efficacy (CSE) during game-based learning. A Creativity Mindset Inventory (CMI) and…

Game-based learning has proven to be an effective teaching method in a variety of fields, including supply chain management (SCM). This paper discusses the use of simulation-based business games for training and education in SCM by evaluating the complexity of SCM games. The main contributions of this study are twofold. (1) Creation of a database…

In conventional digital game-based learning, geographic maps are generally used to provide students with the whole picture of the gaming contexts, while the concepts to be learned are separately presented as individual gaming objects. Scholars have indicated the problems of such a gaming content design, in which students could encounter…

This study examines the effect of a gamified information security education system (ISES) on developing users' information security awareness and protection behavioral intention. We developed a research model based on affordance theory and means-end chain theory. Using a scenario-based experimental survey approach, we obtained 220 valid samples…

Embodied cognition and movement-integration (MI) in classroom settings attract the interest of researchers and practitioners. The purpose of this six-week pilot study was to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a MI approach (PunMoves) focusing on the comprehension of punctuation marks in reading, which was implemented in 12…

Why should leadership educators trouble themselves in creating or implementing games for leadership learning? This chapter justifies the use of games as a teaching strategy in leadership education by exploring three rationales. First, games can be meaningfully tied to specific learning theories. Second, games provide motivation for learning, and…

Chemistry education games are helpful tools in chemistry classes, although their design and production are challenging. It is acknowledged that the number of chemical equations is enormous and varied, so it is rather difficult for beginners to memorize equations within a limited time. In a sense, beginners' interest in exploring chemistry is…

Games in the classroom is not a new concept. Simulations, board games, and online games are popular methods of incorporating game-based learning or gamification into the classroom. However, newer and more humor-based games popular with student populations, such as Cards Against Humanity, a popular card-based party game, have produced some…

The purpose of this work is, before the mission, training of personnel searching for explosives with metallic mine detectors for their operations in the battlefield and gaining experience by searching for explosives in a virtual environment. In this context, a search model was created by determining the factors affecting the search for explosives…

Exercise is essential for mastering mathematics, but it faces two major hurdles. First, students are often not motivated to do their homework. Second, checking traditional homework is a manual and labor-intensive process that becomes harder to support as the number of students increases. We argue that computer games could alleviate both problems.…
