Title: “The Journey to Self-Actualization: Gamified Teaching Process for Higher Education Level”

Introduction: The gamified teaching process aims to engage higher education students in an interactive and immersive learning experience centered around Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory. By incorporating game elements, students will be motivated to explore and understand the theory’s concepts, apply them to real-life scenarios, and ultimately strive for self-actualization.

  1. Level 1: Building the Foundation (Physiological and Safety Needs) Objective: Introduce and comprehend the physiological and safety needs of Maslow’s hierarchy.

a) Gamified Activity: Survival Quest - Students embark on a virtual survival adventure where they must fulfill basic physiological needs (food, water, shelter) and overcome challenges related to safety (escaping dangerous situations). - Each successful completion of a task unlocks a new level of understanding, accompanied by relevant theory explanations and examples.

  1. Level 2: Establishing Belongingness and Love Needs Objective: Understand the importance of social connections and relationships.

a) Gamified Activity: Community Builder - Students participate in a virtual community-building simulation, where they interact with virtual characters and form relationships. - They must navigate through various scenarios, such as resolving conflicts, fostering teamwork, and demonstrating empathy. - Points are awarded based on their ability to establish meaningful connections and contribute positively to the community.

  1. Level 3: Achieving Esteem Needs Objective: Explore self-esteem and recognition as crucial components of personal growth.

a) Gamified Activity: Quest for Recognition - Students engage in a series of challenges that require them to showcase their skills, talents, and achievements. - They can create digital portfolios, present projects, or participate in virtual competitions. - Feedback and peer evaluations contribute to their overall score, encouraging healthy competition and self-improvement.

  1. Level 4: Pursuing Self-Actualization Objective: Encourage students to identify their passions, strengths, and personal growth opportunities.

a) Gamified Activity: Path to Self-Actualization - Students embark on a personalized virtual journey, exploring different career paths, hobbies, and personal development opportunities. - They can choose from a range of quests, such as attending workshops, volunteering, or pursuing internships. - Each completed quest unlocks new insights and resources, guiding them towards self-actualization.

  1. Level 5: Reflection and Integration Objective: Reflect on the entire learning process and apply Maslow’s theory to real-life situations.

a) Gamified Activity: Life Simulator - Students engage in a virtual life simulation, where they make decisions based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. - They face various scenarios, such as career choices, relationship dilemmas, and personal growth opportunities. - Their decisions impact their virtual character’s well-being and progress towards self-actualization.

Conclusion: By gamifying the teaching process related to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, higher education students are actively involved in their learning journey. The interactive and immersive nature of the activities fosters engagement, critical thinking, and application of the theory to real-life situations. Ultimately, this gamified approach aims to empower students to strive for self-actualization and personal growth.
