Abstract

This study aimed to enhance the level of engagement of the school’s – Alternative Learning System (ALS) Night School Program (NSP) Junior High Learners using Kahoot as Gamification in the assessment process. Specifically, the study determined the level of the NSP’s student engagement before and during the gamification intervention, highlighting the differences and incidental findings. Random sampling and descriptive statistics were utilized. The findings revealed an increase in the mean score describing the student engagement before and during the intervention. The gamification strategies implemented were beneficial to the enhancement of the student engagement. Hence, this action research considered the recommendation of gamification strategies in the multi-grade classroom to enhance the participation, collaboration, and overall engagement of the learners, especially if the students’ needs were addressed.
