“…Learning from personal experiences, including failures, is pivotal for professional development [47]. Gamification emerges as a valuable tool to address challenges in implementing educational innovations and enhance their effectiveness [48]. The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated adjustments in educational courses, leading to the discovery of unintended benefits and opportunities [49].…”

The global health crisis of COVID-19 has transformed the global education landscape, shifting towards digital-based education for teaching and learning. Consequently, the predominant medium for teaching and learning practices is now digital technology. However, the utilization of digital technology, particularly innovations in teaching and learning, is not widely embraced in economic education. This study aims to explore the factors contributing to the limited innovation among economics teachers in the classroom and suggests measures to foster innovation in economic learning. Using a cross-sectional survey design with a qualitative research approach, the research sample involved 12 informants with over 10 years of teaching experience in form colleges around the Klang Valley. Semistructured questions were employed for data collection, and thematic analysis was used to address the study objectives. The results revealed 11 sub-themes within 4 categories representing obstacles to cultivating innovation among economics teachers. Additionally, 5 sub-themes within 2 categories highlighted measures to empower innovation in economics teaching. The study’s findings can serve as a reference for colleges, heads of economic education modules, and the Malaysian Ministry of Education to promote the digitalization and innovation of the economic field.

“…More recent findings show that the use of gamified activities benefits the learning on EE environments. For example, the review and categorization of educational challenges conducted by Yordanova (2020) shows that entrepreneurship is a top priority in education and groups it into the "new skill" cluster of challenges. She also shows how emotional reinforcement, challenges, collections and virtual goods can help in educational innovations in this regard; note, that these elements are found in CAFET.…”

Purpose This study aims to find empirical evidence on how video games can foster innovation skills and change perceptions about entrepreneurship and general aspects related to the industry in Colombia while innovative pedagogical processes in teaching entrepreneurship in higher education. Design/methodology/approach Based on design-based research, serious games (SGs), entrepreneurial education and the innovator DNA framework, the authors collected data from undergraduate students enrolled in two online entrepreneurship courses at a Colombian university. One course is used as a treatment group where students play a video game created for the purpose of this research while the other group is used as control where traditional learning activities are performed. A self-reported method was used on the perceptions of the students after participating in the activities through questionnaires to find differences between the mean scores reported by both groups. Findings The results indicate that students who participated in the video game reported a higher fostering of their innovation skills and a broader change in their perception of entrepreneurship and aspects related to the coffee industry, in contrast to the students of the control group. Originality/value Using a video game created by EAFIT University in Colombia, this study responds to an identified need for studying the adequate use of SGs in online class contexts and the need of fostering both innovation skills and positive perceptions on entrepreneurship among students.

“…One challenge is the increasing failures and unsatisfying results from educational innovations implementation and application, which can be addressed through gamification's diverse elements and characteristics (Kummanee et al, 2020). Another challenge is the need for collaboration among multiple disciplines, which can be facilitated by game-centric methods that encourage design thinking skills and experimentation (Yordanova, 2020). Gamification also offers opportunities for increasing student engagement and motivation in the teaching-learning process, as well as developing leadership skills and promoting collaborative work (Murray et al, 2017).…”

The STEAM learning environment with a gamification system has been found to promote innovators by enhancing creative thinking and innovation skills in students. It can engage and motivate students, making the course content come alive. The objective of this study is to provide an overview of the research conducted in the field of STEAM education with a focus on gamification, specifically examining studies published within the last six years. A bibliometric analysis and systematic reviews were performed to examine the trends in published literature on steam learning environment on gamification systems to promote innovators between the years 2018 and 2023. The retrieval of pertinent documents was conducted by employing keywords associated with “TITLE-ABS-KEY (“steam” AND “gamification” AND “innovation” AND “skill” AND “innovator” AND “learning environment” AND “ecosystem”)” in the title, abstract, and keywords of the documents. Consequently, a total of 5 documents were obtained from the Scopus database for the purpose of conducting bibliometric analysis and systematic review. The review examines the pattern of publication growth, identifies the papers with the highest citation counts, determines the primary sources of these articles, assesses the productivity of writers, analyzes the leading countries contributing to the field, and identifies the prominent subject areas within the research domain. Based on the results of our investigation, it can be concluded that Thailand exhibits the highest level of productivity in terms of publications and citations. Education and Information Technologies is widely recognized as the primary scholarly resource in its field. Through the co-occurrence of keywords analysis, we determined that the most significant keywords associated with steam learning environment on gamification systems to promote innovators are gamification, creative thinking, steam education, design thinking and digital learning ecosystem and so on. The computer science and social science domains have the highest number of published documents.
