title = "The Impact of System Interactions on Motivation and Performance in a Game-Based Learning Environment",
abstract = "The current study examined how students' frequency of interactions with game-based features impacted their system performance (i.e., total trophies won and achievement levels earned) and attitudes toward the game-based system, iSTART-ME. This study (n=40) was a part of a larger study (n=124) conducted with high school students. Results indicate that students' interactions with game-based features were positively related to both their system performance and their posttest attitudes toward the system. These findings provide further support showing that the integration of game-based features has positive effects on students within educational learning environments.",
