Abstract

Digital game-based learning (DGBL) enhances critical thinking and improves college students' commitment. This study seeks to inspect the effects of digital game-based learning features on student perceived motivational support and cognitive investment. Data was analyzed via multiple regression to assess the relationship between independent variables and dependent variables. Results revealed that students in UMSLIC were significantly affected by factors such as game structure, game involvement, game appeal, attention, relevance, satisfaction, and cognitive investment. What's more, game involvement and game appeal of DGBL shows that students are more interested. Furthermore, attractive graphics and animations make the students more interested to use DGBL. The game allows the students to roleplay, and the challenges make them fun and more interested throughout the game. It promotes the students to engage deeply in the playing process.
