GAME-BASED LEARNING TO IMPROVE CRITICAL THINKING AND KNOWLEDGE SHARING: LITERATURE REVIEW

Abstract

Game-based learning is an innovative approach that combines educational content with interactive gameplay, providing students with an engaging and immersive learning experience. By incorporating interactive and engaging elements, games have the potential to create an immersive learning environment that fosters active participation and deep understanding. However, despite the growing interest in this field, there is still a need for further exploration and understanding of how game-based learning can be effectively utilized to improve critical thinking and knowledge sharing. The purpose of this paper is to explore the potential of using games as an effective educational tool. It aims to investigate how game-based learning can enhance knowledge sharing among learners and foster the development of critical thinking abilities. To achieve this purpose, the research conducted in this paper includes a literature review on game-based learning and its impact on knowledge sharing and critical thinking skills. Additionally, the paper presents a case study that demonstrates the effectiveness of a specific game-based learning approach. The findings of this research contribute to the understanding of how games can be utilized to enhance educational outcomes and promote active engagement among learners. The paper provides guidelines for implementing game-based learning in educational settings and offers recommendations for designing effective game-based learning experiences.
