Keywords:
Gamification; Higher education; Minimax optimization; Game theory; Educational software; Student engagementAbstract
The increasing adoption of educational software in higher education has intensified interest in gamification as a strategy to enhance student engagement and academic performance. However, the effectiveness of gamification largely depends on the strategic selection of game elements under conditions of uncertainty regarding student responses. This study proposes and empirically validates a minimax optimization approach, grounded in game theory, to design robust gamification strategies for university-level educational
software.
