Abstract
Students in this present time are considered tech-savvy. They find the traditional method of teaching boring leading them to habitual absenteeism. When students are demotivated to learn, their performance in class is affected negatively. This action research aimed to integrate gamification - the use of game elements in non-game context - in teaching Grade 10 Physics in order to awaken the interest of the students and motivate them to study the subject and perform better in it. The effect of gamification on students motivation to study Physics was measured using a validated instrument called physics motivation questionnaire (PMQ) II and was administered before and after the conduct of the study. Two modules of Grade 10 Physics were discussed during the study and the average normalized gain of the pre-post tests of both modules were calculated to see the effect of gamification in students performance. Finally, classroom observations, surveys and interviews were done in order to determine the perception of the students towards gamified Physics instruction. The results of the study revealed that the integration of gamification in teaching Grade 10 Physics significantly improved the motivation, performance and perception of the students towards learning physics.
