“…The gamification concept has a broad scope and encompasses various contexts such as education and training (Inchamnan, 2018). 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).…”

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.

“…Gamification is a marketing tool widely used in every country by using game techniques and mechanics to create motivation and encourage interaction between organizers and participants (Inchamnan, 2018). Gamification has been used in education to help stimulate learning and engage learners in fun learning by using game mechanics as simple operators (Huang & Soman, 2013;Swacha, 2021).…”

University attrition rate is increasing around the world and there is a consequence for the student who is dropping out, the university, and society as a whole including costs, psychological issues associated with the perceived feeling of failure, and issues around employability and job satisfaction (Sosu & Pheunpha, 2019). The university attrition rate is increasing in Mongolia too. About 80% of the students who study at the Teachers' School, Mongolian National University of Education (MNUE) are from the country of Mongolia and most of them come to the capital city to do their tertiary education. Due to the differences between rural and urban lifestyles, and expectations of tertiary education, the dropout rate is increasing especially at the beginning of the first semester. There is an urgent need to better understand the need to drop out of the university and find ways to support these students to adjust to university life and life outside the university. This study aims to explore the issues associated with adjusting to university studies and its relationship with attrition. It used the SPSS-20 program to collect data from 80 first-year students. The findings revealed that the students needed support in many aspects of their studies, including support with time management, stress management, and well-being. The study suggests policymakers and university managers to develop a plan to better support students to seamlessly transition into the university and life outside the university during the first half of the first semester.

“…The Silk Road project were aimed at connecting countries that holds 55% of the world Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 70% of global population, as well as 75% of energy reserves (Li, 2014;Inchamnan, 2018). BRI certainly holds great promises; however, this project will be shadowed with potential pitfalls for both China and the neighbour countries as well.…”

Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has been proposed by president of China in 2013, as the purpose of boosting developments and trade activities in China, Asia, Europe, Middle East and Africa. The study focuses on examining the impacts of BRI strategy towards the economic growth of 60 participated countries. Panel data analysis is used to determine the relationship of foreign direct investment, government expenditure, international trade, exchange rate and inflation rate with gross domestic production. We divide the sample into pre-and post-BRI covering from 2008-2013 and 2014-2020 respectively to better dissect the impact of BRI on economic growth. Our findings show that the impact of foreign direct investment and exchange rate on economy growth are significant during the period of pre-BRI while after BRI foreign direct investment, exchange rate, government expenditure and inflation are found significantly associated with economic growth. The findings also demonstrate the expected sign of the relationship with theory; merely government expenditure shows unexpected negative sign. The study covers almost full sample of participated countries lead to the highly reliable panel regression results. The finding perhaps can be the guideline to those countries who intend to be part of BRI in the future.
