Developing Character Education based on Gamification: A Study of Gamification for E-Learning

The gamification approach is one approach that can increase learner engagement and motivation in the learning process. Much research on the gamification approach is more about design, especially to increase students' motivation and engagement in learning. However, few systematic gamification designs are still used to generate character education values. Some studies show that character education values can be developed by elaborating and sharpening some elements in gamification and gamification approach design. Therefore, this research explores information about methods and implementation with a gamification approach to e-learning for character education. This research uses a literature study method with PICOC analysis with data collection using gamification based on character education as the main keyword of the research. The results of this study show that gamification design on e-learning leads more to developing creative character education values and hard work. This is because the application of e-learning with a gamification approach uses existing platforms such as MOOC, Kahoot, Quiz, and Moodle. Further research is needed to design gamification by integrating learning methods so that learning used to strengthen character education can be achieved.
