“…Classcraft focuses on players' behaviours. is platform enables instructors to foster learners' desired behaviours related to classroom management [10,14,27,28]. For instance, learners can ensure attendance, participation, collaboration with other learners, and interaction with class instructors [29][30][31].…”

Classcraft has become an attractive gamification choice that turns classes into motivating and joyful role-playing experiences. Based on the content analysis and meta-analysis, this study aims to investigate the efficiency of Classcraft in terms of optimal gamification learning experiences associated with learning achievement and motivation. After the identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion processes, we have found that learning achievement and motivation are significant factors conducive to optimal gamification learning. The meta-analysis based on STATA 15 has demonstrated that gamification platforms including Classcraft can similarly enhance learning achievement (d = 0.621, z = 5.846, 95% CI [0.413, 0.829]) and motivation (d = 0.608, z = 6.167, 95% CI [0.415, 0801]), suggesting that gamification platforms including Classcraft can create optimal learning experiences. Another content analysis has revealed that Classcraft involving gamified reward mechanics, interactive settings, and collaborative tasks can fulfil the conditions of optimal gamification learning experiences. The main conclusion is that Classcraft can efficiently create optimal gamification learning processes that can positively influence learning achievement and motivation. We have also discussed the potential reasons for the positive effects of gamification on learning achievement and motivation. Game implementation can reflect learners’ preference for well-being based on continuity, interaction, and openness.

“…Various studies present Gamification as a teaching-learning methodology, derived from the Project-based Learning (PBL), which can foster creativity and motivation in students [15], [16], [17], [18]. Thus, GBL can be an effective way in which to motivate students and engage them in active learning experiences [19].…”

The current labour context is increasingly changing, driven by the continuous blooming of technological changes. So, the integration of recent graduates to the labour market, as new professionals, demand the acquisition of not only each field's specific Hard Skills, but also generic, transversal Soft Skills which might facilitate the adaptation of these professionals to future contexts, while enabling them to develop their work career in a responsible way, as well as increasing their entrepreneurial spirit. These abilities are especially relevant in the field of design engineering, as the idiosyncrasy of the discipline leads their practitioners to offering solutions to diverse problems society and users have. So their professional development is inextricably linked to social changes and society evolution. In this way, in the "Sustainable Development Goal 4, Education 2030" (SDG4-Education 2030), regarding targets and commitments, the UNESCO defines the needs to emphasize the development of high-level cognitive and non-cognitive/transferable skills, such as problem solving, critical thinking, creativity, teamwork, communication skills or conflicts resolution, which can be applied across a wide range of occupational fields.
