Abstract

Due to the pandemic, there has been a drastic change in the advancement of online learning platforms. This article will help us understand the reasons for the increase and decrease of using online learning platforms. Based on the research conducted, it was observed that almost the majority of the students (48.4%) have not completed the enrolled course. Few of the students have come at least halfway (14.5%) to the completion of the course. And the rest of the students (37.1%) responsibly completed the enrolled course; almost half the students who haven't completed the course indicated that the main barrier faced among the students is the lack of interaction (36.7%).

1. Introduction

The development of information technology in the twenty-first century has had a profound effect on the economic, social, and educational aspects of society. One prominent change in the education sector is the integration of computers and information and communication technology (ICT) into teaching and learning methods to facilitate dynamic education and the attainment of objectives.

Gamification is an emerging and disruptive field in the realm of eLearning. There has been a surge in the utilization of online learning systems. Online learning is an educational approach that utilizes the internet for self-education. Various educational sites, such as Coursera, Udemy, Great Learning, and others, exist. Institutions sought a method to provide education to students within the confines of their own residences. The transition to virtual learning has brought about significant changes. It has compelled students to utilize technology to enhance their talents and other facets of knowledge, while also proving to be highly time-consuming. Despite the assistance provided by online learning systems, individuals have required support in adapting to this lifestyle. The pupils and instructors encountered numerous difficulties in adapting to the digital instruction. Based on the findings, over 1.2 million university college students fail to complete their studies and leave every year due to a lack of desire. Additionally, only about 56% of university college students manage to finish their four-year degrees within a six-year timeframe. It is contended that this is a result of inherent deficiencies in the way we educate, using the most advanced methods available. Observe a solitary presentation on trends in educational innovation, and the instructor is likely to highlight the striking similarities between a contemporary study environment and one from centuries ago. Research has confirmed that implementing gamification in various decision-making processes has led to increased engagement and motivation. There are multiple approaches to incorporating gamification into your college classroom.

The study was focused on the students of the final-year Bachelor of Computer Applications program of the Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science in Padur, Chennai, India, during the 2019–2022 academic year. This poll was conducted among BCA students in their final year. Created a gamified e-learning website, and they will study both online (using the gamified website) and offline mode. i.e., they will study the same fifth and sixth-semester courses in parallel. They finally discovered a significant gap between gamified e-learning and our classroom instruction based on internal assessments (internal 1 and 2). Students obtained good grades in online Learning compared to our classroom teaching last year.
