Abstract

This article presents the results of an experiment involving gamification of “Principles of Management” classes conducted at Kozminski University in the winter semester of the 2014/2015 academic year. We found that although gamification gave mixed quantitative results in terms of final grades, it produced very positive qualitative results, which were visible in students’ behaviors.
