Aljraiwi, S. (2019). Effectiveness of Gamification of Web-Based Learning in Improving Academic Achievement and Creative Thinking Among Primary School Students. International Journal of Education and Practice, 7(3), 242-257. https://doi.org/10.18488/journal.61.2019.73.242.257

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Quasi-experiment with 60 primary students (30 experimental, 30 control) learning English via a gamified web-based environment vs traditional teaching. The experimental group's post-test mean was 28.80 vs 23.40 for controls, a difference "at the significance level of 0.01 in favor of the experimental group". Table 1 reports an Eta Square of 0.92, described as a high effect size.

"Table 1 shows that there was a high difference between the scores of the students of the control and experimental groups in the post -achievement test at the significance level of 0.01 in favor of the experimental group."
