Abstract:
This study is a classroom-based action research utilizing the pretest-posttest single intact group approach to determine the effectiveness of Gamified Differentiated Homework on motivation and academic performance of Grade 11 students in General Chemistry. The intervention uses the differentiated homework to address the academic needs of students with varying levels of readiness, and gamification through the use of ClasscraftTM. Integrating gamification and differentiation to homework helped students improve their motivation and academic performance especially during the challenging times in pandemic where students are bombarded with so many homework tasks with little to no support in other subjects.
Keywords –gamification, differentiated learning, homework, general chemistry, motivation, academic performance. |
