Due to the increased use of technology, modern humans are experiencing shorter attention spans. This statement applies to students in school as well. Long and boring lessons would have little impact on a student, therefore a teacher should transform their pedagogy in order to engage students.
Teachers should implement game aspects to their teaching, such as creating leader boards, levels and badges. By transforming activities to incorporate these game-like aspects, students would be engaged in their learning.
