This study evaluates the impact of game-based learning (GBL) and Service-Learning on the flow and engagement of teacher education students. A quasi-experimental between-group comparison design with pre-test and post-test measures was conducted with a sample of 113 students majoring in childhood education. The results indicate that the experimental group statistically significantly improved their flow and engagement scores compared to the control group. It is concluded that the GBL and SL methodology in initial teacher training allows students to learn about inclusive education in a motivating way and to design different strategies and resources that they will be able to use in their professional future.

Facultad de Educación, Universidad Indoamérica, Quito, Ecuador.
This dataset contains evaluation results from video game-based assessments administered to first-level university students across six different academic programs at Universidad Indoamérica from October 2022 to August 2024. The data were collected using an adapted version of Pacman through the ClassTools.net platform, where traditional quiz questions were integrated into gameplay mechanics.

Background: The skills required to safely manage vaginal breech birth are declining among healthcare professionals, while midwifery students have limited practice opportunities due to its rarity. Innovative techniques, such as simulation and gamification, have the potential to enhance the acquisition of these essential skills.

Histology is a preclinical subject transversal in medical, dental, and veterinary curricula. Classical teaching approaches in histology are often undermined by lower motivation and engagement of students, which may be addressed by innovative learning environments. Herein, we developed a serious game approach and compared it with a classical teaching style.

Natural disasters cause significant losses. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are valuable in rescue missions but need to offload tasks to edge servers due to their limited computing power and battery life. This study proposes a task offloading decision algorithm called the multi-agent deep deterministic policy gradient with cooperation and experience replay (CER-MADDPG), which is based on multi-agent reinforcement learning for UAV computation offloading.
