Sažetak
Gamification in education operates under the assumption that the kind of engagement that garners experience with games can be translated to an educational context towards the goals of facilitating learning and influencing student behaviour. The trend becomes more and more popular, especially in a non-formal learning environment, but still it is not very well known in the formal education process among people who are preparing to become teachers, educators or pedagogues in Poland and Croatia. The aim of the qualitative and quantitative scientific explorations was to survey students preparing for taking up the profession of a teacher about the knowledge in the field. The survey was conducted during the first and second quarter of 2018 among 61 last grade students of Early Education at University of Silesia in Poland and among 30 5th grade students of Integrated undergraduate and graduate teacher's education at University of Split in Croatia. Additionally, students' creation and animation about the gamification and role of games in learning and teaching process were analyzed. As a results of the observation and analysis we pointed examples of different kind of games (such as board games, card games, logical games, escape rooms) and mechanisms (such as cooperation, collecting points and badges, completing levels) that can be used in practical pedagogical work with students. The approach to the variety of gamification in education produces a practical pursuit to its accomplishment. The study was designed to show the opinion and attitude of students to this problem in the context of future work but also to show the practical hints how to use such trend in higher education in the pedagogical field.
