Abstract:

A key tool for redefining how we approach teaching and learning is eGamification evaluation. To make learning more interesting and participatory, eGamification evaluations integrate gaming components like points, badges, and leaderboards. This essay investigates how eGamification assessment affects the teaching and learning procedures. The study examined how student learning results and classroom engagement were impacted by assessment. The statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between eGamification assessment utilization and student engagement and motivation in the classroom. The findings suggest that eGamification Assessment can be an effective method for formative assessment and can help students develop the skills they need to succeed in today's environment of rapid change, while further research is necessary to evaluate whether these findings can be applied generally. Adopting eGamification Assessment can revolutionize teaching and learning, and all students will gain from a setting that is more interesting and productive.
