Principes de la gamification integres dans le manuel numerique de FLE

Abstract

The notion of “gamification” is quite recent. First appeared in the industrial sector, gamification has been taken up by pedagogy with the sense of using game design elements in contexts other than the game. In other words, gamification in the French classroom involves using game-based mechanics, aesthetics and playful thinking to engage learners, motivate action, promote learning and solve problems. In this context, gamification can modify social relationships, with a view to adding fun and pleasant dimensions. To do this, the teacher must consider the individual factors of the group of students that come into play. It should also be added that gamification is an underlying trend that is very current among Generation Z, as it is very linked to a technological environment, interconnected and playful. Thus, faced with traditional pedagogy, which assumes having passive students, a gamified activity becomes innovative learning, mediated by technology, which presents a new experiential context for both the teacher and the students.
