ABSTRACT

This study aims to investigate the relationship between gamified teaching models on students' learning motivation and academic achievement, and to provide supportive data through empirical research and quantitative analysis. The study used a cross-sectional design, and higher vocational students from Guizhou Industrial Vocational and Technical College were selected as participants. One class was designated as an experimental group with a gamified teaching model; the other class served as a control group and adopted the traditional teaching model. Data were collected using questionnaires and academic performance records, and data analysis by statistical methods such as descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, regression analysis and group comparison. The results showed that regarding the learning motivation, students in the experimental group showed a higher intrinsic motivation and slightly higher extrinsic motivation, with no significant difference in control motivation. In addition, there was a positive correlation between learning motivation and academic achievement, and students in the experimental group with a gamified teaching mode showed better performance in academic achievement. These findings support the validity of gamified teaching models in enhancing students' learning motivation and academic achievement. It is suggested that gamification elements be incorporated into educational practice to promote student engagement, motivation and learning outcomes.
