The Implications on Innovative Gamification Approach: Station Rotation Gamification (SRG) to Increase Student’s Motivation

Abstract

Engaging student in learning is a very challenging process. This problem will lead to reducing in students’ interest and motivation in learning. According to Yang and Newman (2019), station rotational gamification aims to boost students' motivation, engagement, and academic success. Station Rotational is a component of blended learning, which combines in-person and online instruction. As a proposed solution to this issue, gamification will be incorporated into rotational blended learning using different stations in this study. This will allow students to learn transferrable abilities and then use them at stations that are optimised for the particular talent.Although gamification has been the subject of prior studies, relatively few have offered it in blended learning and e-learning in higher education in an organised fashion. As a result, the implementation of Station Rotation Gamification in collaborative environments will provide an alternative solution to the engagement issue both inside and outside of the classroom. The suggested approach that was applied in this study is a quasi-experimental to gauge how motivated students are when employing Station Rotation Gamification in a group setting. Following a structured interview with the researcher, 33 motivating questionnaires will be given to the students to complete. The use of Talentlms.com was made to evaluate the validity of gamification in education.The next step is to calculate the means for each construct for the three phases of pre-intervention, interim intervention, and post-intervention. Throughout contrast, Perceived Competence and Perceived Choice show an increase from pre-intervention to interim intervention but both constructs decline during post-intervention. These 2 constructs, effort and value, are gradually increasing throughout these 3 stages. The suggested approach works better at boosting pupils' motivation. This study's key contribution is to normalise the contrast variation and remove lighting variation. Conclusion: Using the suggested strategy effectively and efficiently resulted in an increase in the motivation of the students.
