In today's technologically advanced classrooms, interaction between students and teachers can be facilitated with the help of QuizWhizzer. In the context of a game-based learning approach, a descriptive study methodology was utilized to investigate students' responses to educational games like QuizWhizzer. Beginning with the preparation of learning tools to direct classroom activities is the first step in the processes for this study. QuizWhizzer preparation, integration, and evaluation. As the teacher's understanding grows, they may realize the shortcomings of the previous gathering and decide to improve it by incorporating the model learning game-based learning they developed with QuizWhizzer. The results of this study are as follows: 1) the learning implementation shows that the teacher is always trying to maximize productivity to improve students' math skills; 2) students' activities during the learning process improved significantly; and 3) the teacher's understanding grows, the students' activities during the learning process improved the students in their education assist others who are further behind them in developing the game and the dialogue.

“…Games can be performed individually or in groups; cooperative games, competitive games, strategy games, sports games, games based on luck, entertainment, or educational games; games held indoors or outdoors; It can be classified into different types as games performed with various materials and tools (Ergül ve Erşen, 2023;Harikrishnan, Noor, Jamalludin and Shalini, 2019). Games that vary with age group, area of interest and cultural factors (Hussein, 2023) and are used in education systems to develop skills, gain knowledge, and support learning processes are called educational games (Demirel, Seferoğlu ve Yağcı, 2004).…”

Educational digital games are games designed for educational purposes. These games are used to provide students with certain knowledge, and designated with a with a view to improving their skills or to shaping their behavior. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of educational digital games Wordwall and Matific used in teaching primary school mathematics course on student achievement and attitude. Pre-test and post-test were applied to the experimental and control groups of the study in which quasi-experimental method was used. The study group consisted of 48 students studying in the 3rd grade of a public primary school. In the experimental group of the study, educational digital games Wordwall and Matific were used in the measurement unit of the mathematics course (length, perimeter, area, and liquid measurement). In the control group, the same subject was presented in accordance with the instructions in the third grade mathematics teacher's guide provided by Republic of Türkiye Ministry of National Education. The data were collected with the 20-question "Mathematics Achievement Test", which was jointly determined by the classroom teachers and the researchers, and the "Mathematics Course Attitude Scale" consisting of 13 items developed by Ayvaz (2010). In the analysis of the data, t-test for independent and dependent groups, which is one of the parametric tests appropriate to the research hypotheses, was applied. The findings of the study show the effectiveness of educational digital games in affecting students' academic achievement and attitudes. Based on this result, it is recommended that teachers should benefit from trainings in order to use educational digital games effectively in lessons.

In modern education nowadays, the use of game-based learning as a teaching and learning method is popular in all school subjects, including mathematics. There are numerous studies dealing with the influences of this teaching method on the students’ achievements. Modern teaching theories consider an important effect of education on the development of students’ affective domain, connected with the subject and its teaching. In this work, the author studies journal articles that the use game-based learning in mathematics to assess its effects on the students, with the aim to analyze its impact on students’ affective domain. To achieve this, a systematic review with the use of a PRISMA statement is applied. The data sources are 57 journal articles from the area of interest listed in the Web of Sciences and Scopus. The results indicate that 54% of the articles consider the affective domain in the measurement of the effects of game-based learning in mathematics education. These articles report mostly (84%) the positive influences of game-based learning on students’ motivation, engagement, attitudes, enjoyment, state of flow, etc. The rest of the articles show mixed results, with the authors’ conclusions possibly affected by flaws in the research instruments, selection of study groups, and game design, therefore, stressing the importance of these elements in future research on this topic.
