Description

The article's gamification-supported teaching process combined five activities spanning both formats: 'Five different gamification activities were arranged to include both individual and group-based approaches for five basic learning outcomes.' Group activities (Curriculum Elements Poster, Content Organization Digital Poster, Evaluation Detectives) earned badges such as Design Expert, while individual competitions ran on Kahoot and Google Form, with reflective journal writing after each session aligned with flexible learning principles.
