“…The historical analysis in the fourth research article (Fiş Erümit & Karakuş Yılmaz, 2022) shows that the use of gamification in education is developing a new paradigm. Previously, more traditional and serious approaches to learning were dominant in education.…”

“…After reviewing the ten articles referenced, the author also analyzes this section to explore the methods, theoretical bases, and axiology that have been used. The results of ontology analysis found that there are four types broadly speaking, namely realism (Ahmad et al, 2020;Bitrián et al, 2020;Danka, 2020;de la Peña Esteban et al, 2020;Dindar et al, 2021;Dustman et al, 2021;Rodrigues & Paulo, 2022), based on flow theory (Hamari & Koivisto, 2014), Selfdetermination Theory (Buil et al, 2019), and views on the use of learning methods and applications (Fiş Erümit & Karakuş Yılmaz, 2022). One of the realism ontology of the article by Bitrián et al (2020), is based on the view that objective reality can be measured and observed through the scientific method.…”

“…From an epistemology perspective, we found three main types in reference articles: positivism (Ahmad et al, 2020;Bitrián et al, 2020;de la Peña Esteban et al, 2020;Dindar et al, 2021;Hamari & Koivisto, 2014;Rodrigues & Paulo, 2022), the Qualitative Approach (Danka, 2020;Fiş Erümit & Karakuş Yılmaz, 2022), and the Quantitative Approach (Buil et al, 2019;Dustman et al, 2021). The epistemology of Ahmad et al (2020) is positivism, that is, the view that knowledge can be obtained through empirical observation and systematic testing of hypotheses.…”

“…The field of interactive gamification research has witnessed significant advancements over the years in a variety of domains, such as education (Fiş Erümit & Karakuş Yılmaz, 2022;Paraskeva, Mysirlaki, & Papagianni, 2010), health (Kanat, Siloju, Raghu, & Vinze, 2013), and marketing (Krishen, Dwivedi, Bindu, & Kumar, 2021;Olsson, Hogberg, Wastlund, & Gustafsson, 2016). To gain a deeper understanding of the historical context and theoretical underpinnings of this field, it is essential to examine the works of influential philosophers such as Thomas Kuhn (Kuhn, 2012) and Imre Lakatos (Lakatos, 1978).…”

This literature review provides an analysis of the historical development and theoretical frameworks put forth by notable philosophers such as Thomas Kuhn and Imre Lakatos in the field of interactive gamification research. By examining the contributions and perspectives of these influential figures, the authors aimed to enhance our understanding of the evolution of gamification as a research area. This review serves as a valuable resource for individuals interested in delving deeper into the concept of gamification in interactive research. Furthermore, it offers a collection of references that can be explored in the initial stages of gamification research. By studying the works of influential philosophers such as Thomas Kuhn and Imre Lakatos, researchers can gain valuable insights into the evolution of gamification research and its theoretical underpinnings.. Kuhn's concept of paradigm shifts and Lakatos's ideas on research programs provide researchers with a framework to understand the progression of ideas and theories within the field.

“…Thus, the components of the game (score, leaderboard, rule, announcement notification, avatar, etc.) are intended to attract students' attention, increase their motivation, and encourage their l earning and problem solving during the process (Deterding et al, 2011;Fiş-Erümit & Karakuş, 2015;Kapp, 2012;Lee & Hammer, 2011;Prensky, 2001;Zicherman & Cunningham, 2011). It can be used individually or as a team (Yılmaz, 2020) in both face-to-face and online learning environments .…”

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of foreign language teaching with gamification applications at primary school. In this research, embedded design, which is one of the mixed methods in which quantitative and qualitative methods are used together, has been adopted. The study group of this research is comprised of 33 students from 4th grade at a primary school. Research data were collected through attitude scale for English lesson in primary school, homework, follow-up chart and semi-structured interview. The data of the scale were subjected to inferential statistics, the data of the chart was subjected to descriptive statistics and the data of the interview was subjected to content analysis. According to the findings of the study, the gamification applications significantly increase the attitude of primary school students and have a positive effect on procrastination behaviors. In addition, primary school students have positive evaluations about these applications as making the learning process fun, increasing their curiosity to learn, the participation in the lesson and the desire to be successful. In line with these results of the research, it is recommended to use gamification applications in education for effective teaching.

Gamification is an educational methodology and tool that offers benefits through mechanics and dynamics. It brings motivating experiences and benefits to the instructional design approach. Several studies highlight that this methodology fosters contributions in commitment, fun, enthusiasm, motivation, satisfaction, and interaction in pedagogical contexts. The sample of 308 teachers was obtained after the mass delivery of the instrument to educational centers in Spain. The sample is nonprobabilistic, and the study participants voluntarily answered the survey. Of the participants, 69.8% were women and 30.2% were men; this proportion is representative of the population of teachers. A descriptive analysis is based on three dimensions: most used programs, devices used, and didactic functionality. These data are triangulated with an analysis through the HJ-Biplot method, which is presented as a multivariate graphical representation of the data from an Xnxp matrix. This analysis details findings on the determining role played by the teacher and the relationship between years of experience, age, devices used, and resources used, detected with descriptive and bivariate analyses. Among the conclusions are that the subjects positively value training in digital teaching competence in terms of gamification, although in real daily practice only 30% of teachers claim to use gamified tools. Gamification provides collaborative and innovative benefits in relation to its didactic functionality.
