Abstract

Students in academia are facing serious challenges such as engagement, which causes academicians to question the quality and effectiveness of the teaching pedagogy. As such, new adapted innovative technological tools such as gamifications have been introduced to learning activities experiences and skills acquisition. However, little is known about the implementation of such technologies, which have been relatively underexplored in education literature. The primary objective of this study is to identify the perceptions of students and evaluate their engagement considering the use of gamification in the learning process. There were 210 respondents enrolled in the private university in Jordan were surveyed using a quantitative questionnaire. The study used descriptive statistics and independent sample t-test analyses on the data. The results indicated that the students have positive perceptions of game-based technology in both learning and classroom activity engagement. In addition, student perceptions and engagement did not differ significantly based on age or gender, but significant differences based on user experience were identified. These findings provide insight into the dynamic interaction between students and gamified technology to enhance student perceptions and promote meaningful learning. This research also provides implications on gamification literacy education and the pedagogically rich design of educational games to enhance student engagement. The recommendations are enumerated based on the obtained findings.

Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the critical factors for success students' motivation and their engagement in their learning of Jordan's universities. The quantitative method was employed using a survey questionnaire as the research method to measure students' evaluation of factors. Simple sampling was used to obtain a group of university students. The questionnaire was distributed to 265 university students in Jordan. Data analysis was performed using several analyses such as descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation and regression analysis. The results of the study partially supported several factors influencing students' motivation. The results evidenced that assessment, teaching/learning strategy and students attitudes significantly influenced students learning motivation. The results of this have implications to literature, academicians and decision makers to review and discover the proper methods to invest the necessary tools that can enhance the quality of students learning in the higher education institutions.
