Literature review: the effectiveness of gamification-assisted problem based learning model to improve learning outcomes and student motivation in christian religious education

Abstrak

This study examines the implementation of the PBL model with a gamification approach in the context of PAK. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of learning using the PBL model with a gamification approach in improving learning outcomes and student motivation. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, with a research period of the last 5 years (2020-2025). The results of the analyzed study showed that the application of gamification increased student motivation and engagement. The implementation of the PBL model helps students in understanding material concepts regarding Christian values that can be applied in daily life. Although the lack of empirical research on PBL-Gamification makes the methods used less longitudinal, it does not reduce that PBL and gamification are ineffective. Therefore, the contribution in this study is to fill the study gap related to the application of the PBL model with a gamification approach in the context of PAK
