With gamification flourishing in popularity in educational research, it is essential to synthesize the expanding literature on educational gamification. The current umbrella review aims to comprehensively canvas the disparate findings and conflicting conclusions by critically examining educational gamification reviews. We included 46 reviews of state-of-the-art gamification published between 2016 and 2020. The critical analysis of these studies resulted in extracting six fundamental gamification research areas in education, namely: (1) concept and theoretical knowledge, (2) design, (3) development, (4) impact, (5) personalization, and (6) higher education. It also revealed that systematic reviews were the predominant analysis type. Our umbrella review illustrates the ongoing need in educational research for carefully structured examinations and rigorous methods that validate gamification's instructional advantages.

There is a growing body of literature that recognizes the importance of applying gamification in educational settings. This research developed an application to gamify students’ homework to address the concern of the students’ inability to complete their homework. This research aims to investigate students’ performance in doing their homework, and reflections and perceptions of the gameful experience in gamified homework exercises. Based on the data gathered from experimental and control groups (N = 84) via learning analytics, survey, and interview, the results show a high level of satisfaction according to students’ feedback. The most noticeable finding to extract from the analysis is that students can take on a persona, earn points, and experience a deeper sense of achievement through doing the gamified homework. Moreover, the students, on the whole, are likely to be intrinsically motivated whenever the homework is attributed to factors under their own control, when they consider that they have the expertise to be successful learners to achieve their desired objectives, and when they are interested in dealing with the homework for learning, not just achieving high grades.

Many students suffer from a lack of motivation and interest in doing their homework. This paper introduced a micro-design approach for implementing gamification of learning assignments, led to the extraction of the procedures for gamifying assignment with the micro-design approach, and a suggested conceptual design model called “Snowflake”. The most interesting finding was that micro-level analysis has a positive impact on a gamified assignment which begins with the identification of raw objects such as quizzes, lessons, learning objects and resources.

In recent years, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have a widespread and became one of the future trends to help people from different places to learn online and study courses in different majors. One of the most interesting subjects on MOOCs platforms is Language Learning. The lack of motivation to complete the course after enroling, and completion rates still real problems need to find an innovative solution. Gamification can increase learner motivation to continue studying through MOOCs and can reduce drop-out rates. This research aims at providing a theoretical and practical framework for connecting Gamification in Massive Open Online Chinese Courses and applying Gamification mechanics to support Chinese Language learning through focusing on different perspectives for applying: gamification and instructional design, gamification and course elements, gamifying course interface.
