Abstract
Importance. The development of gamification technologies in the practice of teaching activities is considered. The process of formation and development of gamification concepts in domestic and foreign education is analyzed, the main approaches to the specification of the term “gamification” are identified, it is emphasized that gamification, unlike many gaming practices, has a nonimitation nature, where, based on certain rules, an educational result is achieved.Materials and Methods. An overview of the results of foreign empirical studies of gamification is presented, the identified positive effects of technology application and promising directions of its study are shown.Results and Discussion. Structural and content types of gamification are identified, including the main elements and mechanisms of this pedagogical technology. The potential of pedagogical technology in the field of motivational orientation, involvement and immersion of students in the educational process is emphasized. The distinctive features and possible negative trends in the use of gamification in the educational process are identified.Conclusion. Gamification technologies make it possible to implement most didactic principles and implement sociocultural, communicative, self-development, therapeutic, correctional and entertaining pedagogical functions.
