Dalla teoria alla pratica: una revisione sistematica della letteratura sul Gamified Flipped Learning nell’istruzione superiore
Contenuto principale dell'articolo
Abstract
Il Gamified Flipped Learning (GFL), ossia l’approccio pedagogico che combina la metodologia del flipped learning con le tecniche di gamification, ha guadagnato una crescente attenzione negli ultimi anni, in particolare nel settore dell’istruzione superiore. Questa revisione sistematica della letteratura intende offrire a educatori e ricercatori una visione d’insieme di come il GFL sia stato implementato e con quali risultati. Seguendo le linee guida PRISMA, un totale di 26 studi è stato selezionato e analizzato. I risultati indicano che questo campo di ricerca è ancora in evoluzione e presenta un alto grado di diversità, sia in riferimento alle modalità di implementazione che ai metodi di ricerca. Questo alto livello di variabilità è indicativo della flessibilità dell’approccio, ma rappresenta anche una sfida per gli educatori che desiderano implementarlo. Alla luce di questi risultati, vengono quindi proposte delle linee guida per supportare gli educatori ad adottare con successo il GFL.
