Gamification studies grows exponentially in many areas as Computer Science (as applications) and Education (as part of methodologies). In the second area, this process achieved positive results in the last five years, this can be seen as an increasing in students motivation and performance. However, considering the concept and recent applications, it still lacks a consensus related to its…
Gamification can be defined as the use of game elements outside its main scope. This concept has achieved positive results in education domain due to the fact that frequently it increases users' motivation and engagement. Nevertheless, to achieve these positive results, it is necessary to conduct a well-thought-out planning of gamification strategies that meets students' and teachers' lea…
