“…In the first place, this questionnaire assesses academic motivation in educational gamification systems, since it has been a main topic in subsequent studies (for example, [32]). The theory of gamified learning relates the influence of gamification with better attitudes and behaviors (motivation), which can, in turn, indirectly influence students' learning outcomes [33]. Secondly, it measures the learning perceived by students after the gamification program.…”

Playful learning strategies, such as educational gamification, game-based learning, and escape rooms are increasingly being incorporated into the university education system. In this study, it aims to develop and validate an instrument to analyze motivation regarding the use of playful learning strategies in university students. A total of 450 university students aged between 18 and 55 (Mean = 22.72; Standard Deviation = 5.01) were part of the sample, with whom playful strategies were implemented during the 2019/2020 school year. The results obtained in the confirmatory factor analysis indicate that the questionnaire on motivation for playful learning strategies has adequate psychometric properties to assess the motivation and perception of student learning in the implementation of ludic strategies in the classroom in the Spanish university context.

To further evolve urban quality of life, this paper explores the potential of crowdsensing and crowdsourcing in the context of smart cities. To aid urban planners and residents in understanding the nuances of day-to-day urban dynamics, we actively pursue the improvement of data visualisation tools that can adapt to changing conditions. An architecture was created and implemented that ensures secure and easy connectivity between various sources, such as a network of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, to merge with crowdsensing data and use them efficiently. In addition, we expanded the scope of our study to include the development of mobile and online applications, emphasizing the integration of autonomous and geo-surveillance. The main findings highlight the importance of sensor data in urban knowledge. Their incorporation via Tepresentational State Transfer (REST) Application Programming Interface (APIs) improves data access and informed decision-making, and dynamic data visualisation provides better insights. The geofencing of the application encourages community participation in urban planning and resource allocation, supporting sustainable urban innovation.

“…Agent-based modeling (ABM), conducted by simulating the "individual actions of various agents" combined with serious games, is also helpful in public space co-design using VR or AR [54,55]. Online participation using 3D models is slower (due to big data streaming) than today's citizens' expectations; however, this allows for a free and creative search for ideas and concepts that could transform the power and design quality so as to obtain excellent readability [56,57]. The human dream of a friendly city that is co-created by engaged citizens is offered an opportunity through geo-participation with gamification [58].…”

Rethinking the Public Space Design Process Using Extended Reality as a Game Changer for 3D Co-Design

et al. 2023

Public space design processes are complex. Numerous preconditions and the involvement of stakeholders impede rapid decision making. Two-dimensional drawings remain the norm, although these are difficult for citizen stakeholders to understand. Public space designers rarely use 3D city models, infrastructure building information modeling, digital twins, or extended reality. Usually, 3D images (without animation) are only rendered after decision making for communication purposes. This study consists of an online questionnaire of 102 Flemish region (Belgium) stakeholders to show the appeal of and resistance to the use of 3D and extended reality in public space design processes. In a follow-up experiment, 37 participants evaluated various graphic techniques by their designs and observations. The questionnaire showed that all stakeholders lack experience with the use of virtual reality in design processes. We found that non-designer stakeholders and designers indicated that using virtual reality and interactive online 3D tools using game engines provided a better insight into communication and design. Reusing 3D designs in cycling simulators during the design process results in cost-effective quality optimization, and integration into digital twins or animated spatial time machines paves the way for hybrid, 4D cities. Extended reality supports 3D co-design that has simplicity and clarity from the outset of the design process, a trait that makes it a game changer.
