Abstract

Gamification represents an innovative and attractive methodology to motivate students and improve their learning process. However, despite the growing academic interest in chemistry games in recent years, teachers' attitudes toward chemistry games and the actual use of chemistry games remain a major concern. neglected research areas. Learning interventions can increase student engagement and improve learning. In this regard, it is crucial to explore the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on student engagement and performance while playing online. In this context, the game is a serious exercise for students and teachers. Unlike work, ongoing learning should be stimulating and enjoyable; Therefore, everything should become a game; This is the content of the proponents of sequential teaching. However, this is not a new idea. Furthermore, the basic model of the game itself is not a new phenomenon, as it is widely recognized in schools based on the digitization of society and its institutions. This also fuels reform efforts fueled by public debate that links education above all to the concept of learning and reduces it to this very function, ignoring the purpose and activities of learning, and the different ways of interacting with the world.

Keywords: gamification, pedagogical approach, teaching, learning.
