Summary
Game-based learning (GBL) uses interactive games to transform passive learning into an engaging, skill-building experience. By integrating educational content with game mechanics, GBL boosts motivation, knowledge retention (up to 90%), and cognitive development. It fosters critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving in subjects like coding, math, language, and science. Platforms like Kahoot!, Minecraft Education, and CodeCombat exemplify its effectiveness. GBL also promotes a growth mindset through safe experimentation. While challenges include resource needs and assessment complexity, emerging technologies like AI and VR are enhancing personalization and immersion. With thoughtful implementation, GBL is shaping the future of education across all levels and disciplines.
