Gamification and learning: a review.....and Is it a game?Und

Gamification consists of......

• using game traits in virtual environments.

• using game features in non-game settings.

• using game traits to promote better learning results.

• using games features to consolidate future learning results.

Promoting gamification can be an alternative for settings where......

• learners are intrinsically motivated.

• learners need to get better results in external examinations.

• learners face boredom, traditionalism and passivity.

• learners do not have enough technological devices.

Gamification can trigger learning because.....

• it captures learners' attention.

• it increases motivation through time.

• it helps all learners to feel happy all the time.

• it helps better mental processing.

According to Apostol et al. (2013) these ARE NOT elements in gamification:

• rules, goals and outcome.

• feedback and rewards, problem solving.

• story, player(s), safe environment, sense of mastery.

• virtual communities, traditions

Based on Marczewich's opinion (2012) you need..........feature(s) to promote a gamified learning experience .

• two

• three

• one

• four

Kapp (2012) establishes the importance of incorporating multiple elements of gamification to........

• guarantee the efectiveness of it.

• make sure the contents are taught.

• be sure learners are engaged.

• foster cooperation and collaboration.

Perrotta et al. (2013) argued that game mechanics can be associated to processes involved in the learning experience, which is not one of them......

• rules

• fun

• authentic

• device

One drawback of gamification is that.....

• it encourages learners to improve.

• it makes content to be trivial.

• it impacts intrinsic motivation .

• it impacts retention.

When a gamified learning experience is successful it impacts......

• extrinsic motivation.

• intrinsic motivation.

• cognitive behaviour.

• attainment feeling.

In gamification, through exploration and discovery learners develop (Lee and Hammer, 2011) :

• emotional abilities.

• cognitive skills.

• problem-solving skills.

• linguistic abilities.
