What is gamification?
Gamification is the incorporation of game elements into a non-game context, such as education. The goal is to motivate and engage students by using game elements, such as earning points, badges, or levels. Gamification can help students stay motivated and engaged with the learning material. By applying game elements to the lesson, students can learn in a fun and challenging way. It can also create positive and healthy competition among students, encouraging them to perform at their best.
