THE STUDY OF EFFECTIVENESS OF GAMIFICATION IN TEACHING MATHEMATICS
Keywords:
educational games, mathematical education, students' activity, motivation, learning results.Abstract
This article explores the potential benefits of incorporating educational games into mathematics education to increase student engagement, motivation , and overall learning outcomes. The research examines different game techniques, such as prompts, leaderboards , and interactive game-based activities, and examines their effects on students' math knowledge and attitudes toward science. By analyzing empirical data from a variety of educational settings, this study illuminates the effectiveness of gamified approaches in promoting positive learning environments and developing conceptual understanding in mathematics. The study results provide valuable insights for educators and policy makers seeking innovative strategies to teach mathematics and improve student achievement.
