Students’ goal orientation and gamification in learning for academic performance: A systematic literature review

“…The teaching and learning process is made more interesting and motivating by utilizing gamification ideas, which are taken from video games. Gamification features like points, awards, progress bars, leaderboards, and content locking can be included into teaching, learning, and assessment activities when utilized in tandem with active pedagogies and learning management systems (Firmansyah et al, 2022).
