Abstract

“This paper aims to describe the use of gamification in history learning. Gamification is the use of games and their elements in classroom learning activities. The implementation of gamification requires a platform that teachers and students can access. The platform can use an existing platform or create your own. Gamification is needed as a way to solve problems found in the classroom. The research method used in this paper is a literature review, which is research that critically examines the knowledge, ideas, or findings contained in academic-oriented literature and formulates theoretical and methodological contributions to specific topics. Gamification literature has been widely used in

contributing to learning activities, including history learning. Several studies have attempted to explain how the use of gamification in historical learning activities and measure the effect of the use of gamification in history learning. As research findings, we identified several effects of using gamification in historical education, including the learning process, gamification components, teacher perceptions, interests, understanding material, student involvement in learning, motivation and interests, and student perceptions.”
