Abstract

The term gamification is relatively new. A decade ago, this almost did not exist, and now it is implemented not only in the education, but in business sector, sport events, politics, medicine

and other fields. Gamification is using gaming methods in non-gaming situations. This means applying a gaming way of thinking for solving problems, or achieving a certain goal. Using this concept in the educational world motivates students to study and to perform their tasks in a pleasant way. Using gamification in the educational process is growing at an impressive rate. In this paper we will present the basic information on how you can use gamification in the teaching process, as well as an overview of the positive and negative aspects of using gamification in education.
