Abstract
Law school and bar prep can be grueling, but they don’t have to be joyless. With a little creativity, you can turn studying into a game you want to keep playing. Gamification is grounded in self-determination theory, a psychological framework that emphasizes three needs: competence, relatedness, and autonomy. Self-determination theory tells us that motivation and learning are improved when students feel capable, connected to others, and have a sense of control and purpose. Gamification also helps diversify assessment, which makes learning feel more authentic. You’re not just preparing for one big test. Instead, you’re building skills step by step, with feedback along the way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
