“…Gamification is the application of game-based elements and game design techniques in non-game context (Boyinbode, 2018;Bagunaid, et al, 2019;Duy, 2018;Inchamnan, 2019;Ryder & Machajewski, 2017;Zakaria & Rosli, 2019). The use of gamification in a learning environment is seen as an important additional tool in one's learning experience (Mohammad, et al, 2019). In gamified learning experiences, students are responsible to evaluate their learning progress.…”

Purpose of the study: This study was aimed at investigating the students’ attitudes and perception toward the use of Duolingo in Learning English Methodology: A mixed-method design (quantitative-qualitative) was employed in this study. 60 undergraduate students of Syiah Kuala University participated in this study. They were chosen by using purposive sampling techniques. In obtaining the data, questionnaires and interviews were implemented in this study. In the question area, there were 16 close-ended questions adapted from Yang (2012a) and Garcia Botero and Questier (2016) designed using the Likert scale method. Besides, 3 interview questions were asked to 10 chosen students to deeply reveal their perception in using the Duolingo. Main Findings: The result indicated that most students have a positive perception of the use of Duolingo in learning English (Mean=4.0). This study has found that students view Duolingo as a useful and helpful application and a motivational tool in learning English. One of the more significant findings to emerge from this study is the inconsistency between the students’ perception and their acts in using the application. Their positive view on the use of Duolingo was contrary to the fact that they are lacking time in using the application. Applications of this study: This study is intended to shed some lights on how the students perceive their experiences in learning English after using the Duolingo as a part of their out of class engagement. Novelty/Originality of this study: The students’ motivation to learn English outside of the classroom can be enhanced through the use of the Duolingo in mobile phones.

“…In addition, students' critical thinking skills can be improved through the use of this media (Wihartanti et al 2019). By utilizing the available features, the evaluation of learning can be done with media quizziz (Noor, 2020;Arif et al 2019).…”

Interest in learning is a passion or a great desire for something that is closely related to personality, motivation, expression and self-concept, identification, heredity, and external factors. Interest in learning affects the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects of students. In this study, analyzed and interpreted student interest in learning through media-based learning Quizizz and students' perceptions of the media. Based on the analysis and interpretation of the data, indicators of student interest in the media Quizizz increased by 0.818 in the high category, indicators of student attention increased by 0.555 in the medium category, indicators of feelings of pleasure increased by 0.684 in the medium category, and indicators of student involvement increased by 0.599 in the medium category. Also, 76.32% of students thought that Quizizz media were very interesting, 50% thought that Quizizz media were easily applied, 86.84% thought that Quizizz media accommodate students to compete fairly, and 44.74% thought that Quizizz media were practically applied. Thus, students have a good perception of the Quizziz media accompanied by increased interest in learning.

“…These reasons significantly reduce the didactic potential of digital applications supporting education quest technology in the context of the digital education environment. F. K. M. Arif, N. Z. Zubir, M. Mohamad, M. M. Yunus as a team of authors and developers of interactive applications with the ability to support the technology of the educational quest with the potential for the formation of high-demanded competencies in modern society, indicate in most cases, in practice there is no broad discussion of the form and content of resources with participants in the digital educational environment [22]. Analyzing the various functions of digital services that stimulate student personality development and support educational and cognitive goals, we conclude that most of these services correspond to the high-demanded competencies of professionals of the future [8].…”

The problem and the aim of the study. Including game elements and digital services into the students' cognitive activity are the current trends in the development of the didactic system. The designing of an interactive escape room as an organizational form of cognition and learning technology is one of the ways of gamification of the digital educational space. The authors investigate the problems of forming the high-demanded competencies through interactive quest games. These competencies are necessary for graduates to solve future professional tasks and for successful socialization. Research methods. The analysis of fundamental scientific works on the problem of gamification in education and the usage of digital resources for forming high-demanded soft skills were used to obtain theoretical generalizations. The escape room was designed using modern interactive technologies. 48 students of specialty 44.03.01 Pedagogical education (31% of boys and 69% of girls) of Vyatka State University, Kirov, were involved in the designing of game areas for educational purposes. At the control stage of the experiment, the G-criterion was used to evaluate the changes in over-professional competencies being formed. Results. The essence of the concept of an escape room has been clarified as a game space fully adapted to a specific story, and each single element of which is designed to respond to one common plot, including thematic tasks. The stages of designing and implementation of the escape room for educational purposes were described: determination of the system of planned results, over-subject competencies; development of the game scenario; reasonable choice of software and hardware support; correlation of the emotional and psychological component with the filling of the interactive educational space. The empirical value of Gemp=3<Gcr=9 (for p=0.01) obtained in the course of the experiment confirms that the shift towards improving the quality of learning after applying the proposed approach is not random. In conclusion, the authors generalized the factors that provide the effective use of interactive resources of escape rooms to form the high-demanded soft skills: taking into account the peculiarities of game mechanics; professional aspirations and interests; students' cognition style; correlation of actually formed soft skills with planned ones, etc.
