Summary
Video games and playful approaches are increasingly being integrated into educational environments, offering unique benefits for student learning. Games foster creativity, goal-setting, communication, and collaboration while reducing the fear of failure. They create less hierarchical, more interactive classrooms that encourage debate, discussion, and exploration beyond prescribed materials. However, India’s higher education sector remains slow to embrace game-based learning, despite the industry’s global significance. By incorporating game design, students gain valuable skills like problem-solving and initiative. Collaborative learning through games enhances student engagement and fosters critical thinking, preparing students for the evolving workforce.
