Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it

While the poster presents research in progress, a QR code links to a video demonstrating the implementation of the gamified approach on Canvas. The approach follows the gaming principles of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, with the video shown from a student perspective. The video highlights approaches that educators can embed within their practice to increase student engagement and learning satisfaction.
