Abstract

Generation Z is technologically aware, achievement focused, and keen on obtaining quick feedback and instant results from learning processes. Members of Generation Z absorb knowledge and information gathered from digital media and actively share their experiences and achievements with others through social media networks. This study explores how learning systems could be designed to enhance student performance considering the characteristics of Generation Z. It contributes to the gamification literature by (1) providing a nuanced understanding of the interplay among gamification affordances, task modularity, and learning performance, (2) developing a framework for a successful gamified learning system, and (3) generating design ideas for gamified learning applications that improve students’ learning performance.
