Gamification Experience in Organizing Final Projects for a Technical Course in Information Technology
Abstract
Students of Integrated Technical Course in Informatics (medium level), most teenagers, have difficulty to comply and organize their final works. Therefore, this paper describes the experience of the gamification approach using the Class Dojo platform. The results indicate that methodology is viable and can be replicated in other educational institutions.
