“…Applying educational gamification promotes student participation, especially if the game elements used in gamification have established objectives and rewards [39]. Some of its elements, such as storytelling, the involvement of social relationships, or the action of playing, constitute a special tool in order to improve cognitive and academic performance [21,40], even when used for online learning [41]. However, only one study has investigated its cognitive consequences [42].…”

An educational physical education (PE) hybridization program based on the personal and social responsibility model and gamification strategies was used in order to explore the effect on cognitive performance and academic achievement. A 9-month group-randomized controlled trial was conducted, with 150 participants (age: 14.63 ± 1.38) allocated into the control group (CG, n = 37) and experimental group (EG, n = 113). Inhibition, verbal fluency, planning, and academic achievement were assessed. Significant differences were observed in the post-test for cognitive inhibition, verbal fluency (named animals), and the mean of both verbal fluency tasks in favor of the EG. With regard to the intervention, verbal fluency (named animals), verbal fluency (named vegetables), the mean of both verbal fluency tasks, cognitive inhibition, language, the average of all subjects, the average of all subjects except PE, and the average from the core subjects increased significantly in the EG. Values for the last five variables (academic variables and cognitive inhibition) in addition to mathematics also increased in the CG. This study contributes to the current knowledge by suggesting that both methodologies produced improvements in the measured variables, but the use of the hybridization resulted in improvements in cognitive performance, specifically with regard to cognitive inhibition and verbal fluency.

“…Furthermore, in the current era of the Covid-19 pandemic, online learning should be used as much as possible through various technological mediums. Therefore, the use of gamification should be utilized as much as possible because according to Park and Kim (2021) it can have a positive effect on student motivation and understanding of learning content. It is very important to ensure that students continue to be developed and their motivation to learn is maintained at a high level as the teaching and learning process less conducted face to face and physically.…”

Gamification is the use of games that have a design element in a non-game context with the use of elements that can stimulate and motivate its users to deliver the teaching content in the form of games. This study aims to test the effectiveness of Gamification techniques in improving understanding in topic of energy in Year 5 Science subject. A quasi-experiment study was conducted by performing pre and post-tests on 60 respondents (Year 5 students) in a primary school in the district of Kota Belud, Sabah. Descriptive and inferential analysis were used to answer the research questions using SPSS 22. There was a significant improvement in students' achievement after experiencing the Gamification technique, and also a significant improvement for the treatment group compared to the control group that used the picture card method. The findings of this study can help teachers to diversify more appropriate and effective teaching methods in line with the rapid pace of technology. The implication of this study is to expand the scope of Gamification techniques usage in schools and make course exposure to school teachers. In conclusion, Gamification techniques in learning is able to improve student achievement in the topic of Energy in Science subject.

“…Gameful experience is considered to be effective for education because of the following five attributes of experience it promotes, as suggested by Dewey [15], including continuity, interaction, interest, growth, and educational experience. Figure 6 illustrates the basic learning structure in education when gamification is applied [16]. For sustainable learning, the instructor provides learners with missions/quests continuously for a fixed or variable duration.…”

The metaverse is expected to turn imagination into reality through the convergence of various technologies and should be considered as a medium for sustainable education, free from the constraints of time and space. The purpose of this study was to identify world types in the metaverse to deliver a gameful experience to users. The relationship between gameful experience and learning motivation was examined by analyzing previous studies. Furthermore, the metaverse platforms were confirmed as virtual worlds using the metaverse classification. This study employed a bottom-up approach based on real cases to identify world types that can be used for metaverse-based education. Survival, maze, multi-choice, racing/jump, and escape room world types were identified. The results of this study can be used to provide equal educational opportunities to learners by creating innovative educational environments. This is expected to enable the achievement of the fourth sustainable development goal.
