Abstract

In recent years, the integration of gamification into educational settings has garnered significant attention as a means to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. By leveraging gamified elements such as points and leaderboards, educators aim to promote active participation, motivation and deeper understanding among students. This study investigates the effect of gamification on student engagement in a flipped statistics classroom environment. The findings suggest that gamification strategies, when effectively implemented, can have a positive impact on student motivation and engagement. This paper concludes with recommendations for educators, potential challenges such as superficial engagement and demotivation and future directions for research to address these challenges and further explore the potential of gamification in fostering student success.
探索游戏化对统计课堂参与度的影响
近年来,将游戏化融入教育环境,作为提高学生参与度和学习成果的一种手段,受到了广泛关注。通过利用积分和排行榜等游戏化元素,教育工作者旨在促进学生的积极参与、积极性和深入理解。本研究调查了游戏化对翻转统计课堂环境中学生参与度的影响。研究结果表明,游戏化策略如果得到有效实施,会对学生的学习动机和参与度产生积极影响。本文最后提出了对教育工作者的建议、潜在的挑战(如肤浅的参与和学习动机下降)以及未来的研究方向,以应对这些挑战并进一步探索游戏化在促进学生成功方面的潜力。
