A study on educational software development through gamification in guitar education
This study aims to develop educational software for the instrument (guitar) training course through gamification. The study was carried out by basing on the design and development research method and the processes included in the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation phases of the method are considered as the sub-problems of the study. In each phase, interview techniques were used and the participants were determined according to the requirements of the phases. The results reveal that students find the education with traditional methods in instrument education boring and therefore their motivation is low. As a result of the studies carried out to offer solutions to the existing problems related to motivation in instrument (guitar) education, a mobile application called Gitarist was developed and the application was revealed as a product. In the implementation phase, it was concluded that the application developed through gamification techniques had motivation-enhancing effects on students. In line with the results, some suggestions were made for technology-supported studies to be carried out in the future.
