Gamification is a technique which uses motivational aspects of games to motivate and engage users. This study investigates how gamification affects adolescents’ academic task completion rates. It aims to understand how gamification impacts task-completion rates. It involved 21 students of ages 12 to 14 of an Indian school in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, solving mathematics questions on Volume and Surface Area of Cubes and Cuboids. The experimental group solved questions on this topic on Mindspark, while the control group solved questions on the topic on paper. The results of the study indicate a positive correlation between gamification and adolescents’ task completion rate and accuracy. Through a one-tailed Wilcoxon rank-sum test, these results were proven for the larger population of adolescents. Possible causes of these results discussed are the optimal difficulty and high level of control provided by gamification.
