Gamification has created great expectations for education and has become a trend in education. It is not an easy process to integrate gamification into educational environments. The design and development phases of gamification are very important. Therefore, it is necessary to follow a model that will guide the process in gamification designs. Individual differences among students are an important factor affecting their learning performance. In this context, considering student characteristics will increase the effect of gamification in education. Personalized gamification designs that meet the needs and expectations of students will be more effective than one-size-fits-all designs. It can benefit from player/user types in gamification designs to identify individual differences. This chapter aims to discuss player/user types in relation to gamification in the context of education.

The literature suggests that there is often no alignment between student preferences and what and how it is taught in the music classroom. A total of 749 Cypriot secondary school students, aged 12 to 14 years, responded to a survey addressing enjoyment of music, motivation for school music lessons, and perceptions of the music classroom environment. The survey included a questionnaire with six subscales: Involvement, Affiliation, Teacher Support, Task Orientation, Order and Organization, and Rule Clarity. High ratings for Affiliation, Teacher Support, and Rule Clarity suggest that, overall, students’ perceptions of the classroom environment were positive. They were not uniform, but varied on the basis of student characteristics. Girls rated Rule Clarity higher than boys. Younger students tended to rate Task Orientation, Order and Organization, and Rule Clarity higher than older students. Higher-achieving students tended to rate Affiliation and Teacher Support higher. Older boys rated Involvement lower than younger boys, whereas older girls rated Involvement higher than younger girls. It can be inferred that boys experienced a gradual increase in perceived Affiliation as their achievement improved, although the pattern was less consistent for girls. Girls tended to report higher motivation for school music lessons than boys. Motivation was enhanced by classroom environments in which students experienced higher levels of enjoyment of music, engagement, and support from teachers. The findings show that the music classroom environment should be characterized by student engagement, clarity of rules, good organization, clear goals, teacher support, and affiliation between classmates.

The purpose of this study is to draw a connection between the zoning system and students' self-efficacy in science learning achievement among senior high school students in Tangerang. The instruments used in this study included self-evaluation sheets, questionnaires, and objective test results from students in science subjects, among other things. Random cluster sampling was used in South Tangerang schools to select the research sample, which consisted of research objects collected from two public high schools. The information gathered was analyzed in a descriptive quantitative manner using the SPSS program, which was developed by IBM. Teachers from chemistry, biology, and physics are involved in this research activity, and they actively participate in research interviews. According to the science teacher's responses, it was discovered that there was an effect on student characteristics associated with zoning-based admission of new students. The science studies teacher was aware of the school's online acceptance of new students pathway, which was implemented by government recommendations. Student confidence in science subjects was rated as high, and a correlation between zoning-based admission of new students and student characteristics was observed.

Since COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way people conduct things, including educational activities, online learning has become a necessity that schools must adopt. This study aims to analyze the relationship of various variables that affect the success of online learning in accounting subjects in vocational high. This study is a quantitative cross-sectional online survey with 308 respondents from 26 schools in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Data analysis was performed through regression analysis with moderating variables. It concluded that the success of online learning process as measured by Learning Satisfaction was influenced by Student Characteristics, Learning Accessibility, and Textbooks, while Multimedia Materials and other Text Materials did not have any effect. It further observed that teacher Support does not affect learning satisfaction but can moderate the relationship between student characteristics and textbook quality. This means that all related parties need to focus on changing students' mindset, improving the quality of textbooks, and increasing accessibility. On the other hand, to increase success, it is necessary to strengthen the role of teachers.

The present study reports on the development of a questionnaire that evaluates children's experiences of their physical classroom environment, activities and interactions. It also explores the psychometric properties of the questionnaire and how acoustical characteristics of the classroom, class size and student characteristics (age, sex and Swedish as a second language) influence the self-reported outcomes. After development, the questionnaire name should read Activities and Interactions in the Classroom were administered to 101 students (7.9–10.7 years old). Demographic information about the students was collected from parents. The psychometric properties including test–retest reliability are good but can be improved by reducing the number of items. Acoustical characteristics of the classrooms and student characteristics did not predict questionnaire outcomes. As the acoustical conditions in students’ classrooms were close to optimal, communication fostering support should be in focus. The present questionnaire can be used to assess young students’ experiences of their classroom environment and learning situations.

The aim of the research is to create a learning media model for English that uses the Macromedia Flash program, as well as to assess the viability of utilizing Macromedia Flash-based learning media to assist English. This study is a Research and Development (R & D) project with several stages. (1) Analysis stages, such as identifying Learning Media objectives and student characteristics; (2) Design stages, such as designing learning materials and learning media design using the Macromedia Flash program; (3) Production stages, such as producing learning materials, authoring materials, and editing learning materials; (4) Stages of evaluation, including Material Expert Review, Media Expert Review, and Student Testing. The findings demonstrate that the English learning media products adhere to research and development guidelines and are successful in the learning process for SMPN Satu Atap Pulai Tunda students.
