Gamification and modern technologies – how to fully engage students and turn a challenging topic into something interesting?
Dagmara Pancerz, Patrycja Zientarska
Summary
We would like to present an interactive workshop focused on maximizing student engagement through the use of gamification and modern educational technologies. Drawing on our extensive teaching experience, we will share practical ideas and demonstrate how to conduct dynamic, tech-enhanced lessons that motivate learners—especially young children—to actively participate. Our goal is to show that even complex or abstract topics can be transformed into accessible and enjoyable experiences. We will explore how gamification strategies not only increase student interest, but also enhance learning outcomes. Participants will leave with ready-to-use tools and inspiration to make their own teaching more engaging and effective.
