Gamification increases engagement in education, but balancing competition and collaboration is crucial. Educators can establish clear rules, define different rewards, and create diverse teams to achieve a balance. This study used hardware boards to gamify instruction on binary numbers and logic gates, with teams earning points for tasks and working together on a group challenge. Students were highly engaged but had some anxiety about time limits. All teams were engaged, and cooperation was successful.
