Abstract
Using digital educational games is a promising method to improve student learning outcomes. The research has focused on understanding how these systems affect learner behaviour and performance. This study analyses 22 gamified learning monitoring systems from the last ten years and their influence on students’ behaviour and academic achievement. The results indicate a significant positive relationship, demonstrating that gamified learning systems moderately improve student engagement and learning performance. These findings suggest that gamified learning tools can be effectively integrated into educational environments to enhance student outcomes. These insights highlight the value of investing in and adopting gamified approaches for educators and policymakers to boost engagement and improve overall academic achievement. Future research should optimize these systems for various educational settings and student populations to improve their effectiveness.
