Gamification or game based e-learning

   I am conducting research on how the game-based e-learning can help in the teaching and learning processes in our developing countries such like Ghana. Per my information, gamification is an approach to motivate students to learn by using video game design and game elements in learning environment.
   The goal is to maximize enjoyment and engagement through capturing the interest of learners, and, inspiring them to continue learning.
   I sincerely need contribution that will help develop a comprehensive research findings that will come as an addition to what I already know.
Thanks

    You have very great idea Kossi I think gamification though could be adopted at any level in education it mostly applied here in Ghana at the basic especially pre-school level and so visiting a nursery school in your area, observing and interviewing the pre-school teachers will be of help.

    Young children like playing games a lot and any device or medium that will enable them to do that whiles at the same time doing meaningful learning through critical thinking and problem solving skills will keep them stack to their seats and eager to play more. This will help make our lessons intresting and attractive to these young ones.

    As much as children need games to learn, is not every game that is useful and advisable be for children to be introduce to or exposed to.. In designing or selecting your games for teaching you should be mindful of the future of the children.

                 RE-DEFINING LEARNING SPACE Traditional idea of learning space limit the definition to the physical classroom with an arranged  tables and chairs and a teacher/instructor standing close to a chalkboard or marker board with stock of all knowledge and with students in class being "tabular razor" and passive. This concept of learning space narrows the definition to physical structures such as the physical classroom, library, faculty office, cafe and workshops where formal learning takes place.    The new concept of learning space represent significant opportunity for higher education. Technology has made learning spaces potential to serve new learning paradigm. With technology education, learning today is not limited by time and space. Therefore, the definition of learning space has become broader and much more inclusive. The physical classroom is no more the primary locus for learning in education.Technology has changed learning space. According to Brown

BLOG EXPERIENCE

• https://www.mathplayground.com/games.html • My interaction with other bloggers (most of them are teachers and DEEL students), I found that: • They do not have a clear knowledge about GBL • But in other part of the world, bloggers are very conversant with the concept of GBL, and, they are practicing it. Bloggers that are using GBL said wonderful things about the performance of their students.   • 8 questionnaires were given the primary, 6 to the JHS and 6 to SHS. • 2 could not be retrieved from the JHS females. • The questionnaire seeks to know: - If the teacher ever used simple game to teach? - What were the impacts? - If the teacher know how to play a digital game? - Whether the teacher has used GBL in teaching before?  - What are the barriers to GBL? - What were their role in GBL? - If they would like to use GBL?  FINDINGS OF THE RESEARCH - Only 2 nursery teachers (11%), use play to teach. - 17 (94%) once played games on mobile phon
