Analyzing the impact of gamification on student motivation in biology classrooms

Thesis Abstract

This research project aims to investigate the impact of gamification on student motivation in biology education. Gamification involves the integration of game elements, such as points, badges, and leaderboards, into educational activities to enhance student engagement and motivation. The study will explore how gamified learning experiences can influence student motivation, interest, and achievement in biology. The research will employ a quasi-experimental design, comparing a gamified biology classroom with a traditional classroom setting. Data will be collected through surveys, interviews, and student performance assessments. The findings will provide insights into the effectiveness of gamification as a pedagogical approach in biology education.
