Work-in-Progress—Design of Mixed Reality Educational Applications Using Enhanced ARCS+G Model for Motivation

Abstract

The concept of merging gamification and mixed reality (MR) can create a motivational combination for better student performance and learning outcomes. Therefore, this work-in-progress study aims to design a methodology that can create an educational application to improve student engagement, motivation, and their learning outcomes with the advantage of MR technology features. This study presents a gamified MR application approach using an enhanced attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction (ARCS) model with gamification called “ARCS +G” to combine instructional designs with motivational designs. Furthermore, it enables educators and developers to design and develop engaging applications for their audiences.
