Abstract:The fast-growing use of gamification in e-learning underscores its potential to enhance individuals' learning performance and experience. However, the mechanisms through which key gamification element influences people's learning remain unclear. This study addresses this gap by investigating how distinct leaderboard directions influence individual learning performance and satisfaction. We conduct a randomized experiment to examine these effects and explore the underlying mechanisms. Our results show that upwar… Show more
