Abstract

This article presents a study of feedback system in integrative learning environment applying gamification’s badge reward system. Especially this focuses on gamified feedback interface design, examining the effects for learners’ immersion, flow, and homework performance in their learning experience. First, the badge reward mechanism in gamification is examined as literature review, and then, based on such, two different sticker reward feedback interfaces–a synthetic feedback and an analytic feedback-are designed. With the designed feedback systems, we experiment these with a group of elementary and middle school students who are in Scratch class. Scratch requires integrative learnings including programming, graphic design, sound design, and idea planning. Our experiment examined how the sticker reward feedback system aroused their motivation and leaded them to a helpful immersion status. Also we discovered that the analytic feedback system can not only enrich the diversified education for learners but also became a useful tool for teachers, guiding their students’ current knowledge, talents/interests, and their achievements. We hope this research nourishes the study of gamification methodologies, and particularly of a feedback system interface designing for diversified and integrative education.
