Abstract
"This study conducts a quantitative inquiry into how components of gamification and customiza-tion are being used in Saudi Arabia's educational system. In our investigation, we zero in on how these factors could contribute to skill development. This investigation uses a thorough and rigor-ous quantitative research approach to probe students' preferences for gamification components and their thoughts on customization. The findings highlight the amazing congruence between peo-ple's preference for gamification components like points and badges and the need for adaptation and feedback in optimizing the effectiveness of the educational process. Through careful compo-nent analysis, the current investigation successfully separates two distinct constructs: one high- lights the importance of flexibility and responsiveness, while the other emphasizes the signifi-cance of pace and cultural appropriateness. The results of this research have important policy and practice implications for Saudi Arabia, where educational reforms are now underway. The goal of these changes is to boost academic performance by introducing student-specific, interactive gaming into the classroom."
