Tips for Gamifying Your Classroom
In the fall of 2012, during my first semester as a middle school language arts teacher, I taught my classes as a multi-player game (MPG). At the start of the year, I invited my students into a world I'd created and dubbed Veritas, and I asked them to take part in an adventure that would weave together tales from our literature study and narratives of their own making. I had a mountain of research to support my instructional choices, but truth be told, standing before them on that first day, I had absolutely no idea if it would work. Then they started asking questions. “I live on this island,” said one eighth grader, pointing to a tiny circular land mass on the map of Veritas. “What's it called?” “What's the mail system like? “My family is from those mountains up north. They may seem like simple questions, but they showed me something incredibly important. My answer to all their questions: “You live there. In the days and weeks that followed, my students added many points to the map.

Computation of different effect sizes like d, f, r and transformation of different effect sizes: Psychometrica
Statistical significance specifies, if a result may not be the cause of random variations within the data. But not every significant result refers to an effect with a high impact, resp. it may even describe a phenomenon that is not really perceivable in everyday life. Statistical significance mainly depends on the sample size, the quality of the data and the power of the statistical procedures. If large data sets are at hand, as it is often the case f. e. in epidemiological studies or in large scale assessments, very small effects may reach statistical significance. In order to describe, if effects have a relevant magnitude, effect sizes are used to describe the strength of a phenomenon. Here you will find a number of online calculators for the computation of different effect sizes and an interpretation table at the bottom of this page. Intervention studies usually compare the development of at least two groups (in general an experimental group and a control group). Borenstein (2009).
What is gamification?
Gameplay has a lot to teach us about motivating participation through joy. ‘Gamification’ is a new term, coined in 2008, for adapting game mechanics into non-game setting — such as building online communities, education and outreach, marketing, or building educational apps. Here are some ideas for how to do it. Achievements Badges, trophies and points represent having accomplished something. Judd Antin, at Yahoo! Achievements can be easy, difficult, surprising, funny, accomplished alone or as a group. “This has already occurred in education for a long time with things such as merit certificates and awards,” says Australian science teacher Alice Leung, but “gamification is more than that “because the game guides learners towards those goals, and gives constant feedback.” It’s not about winners and losers, says Leung. Judd and his colleague Elizabeth Churchill outline five key psychological functions of badges: Other game mechanics Many other game dynamics can help engage your audience.
