institutions and classrooms, openquestions remain on how to transform institutions to embed game-based learning not as anintervention but as a key part of the curriculum.IntroductionIn recent decades, government and industrial leaders, policy makers, academic and fundingagencies have been calling for drastic shifts in engineering education [1-3]. Since engineeringpractice relies on one’s ability to understand potential problems and design appropriate solutions,one of the more frequently cited needs for engineering education is that students engage inpractical training and gain authentic hands-on experience [4-6]. For example, Kosa et al. [7]highlight that traditional “theory-only” methods do not provide novice engineers with anunderstanding of real

Overall, the literature review has uncovered several research gaps that the engineeringeducation should begin addressing.Conceptual Framework The conceptual framework for the larger study is based on Eccles’ Situated Expectancy-Value Theory (SEVT), a motivation theory that focuses on understanding student achievement-related choices through expectancy and subjective task values (Eccles, 1983; Eccles & Wigfield,2020; M. Te Wang & Eccles, 2013; Wigfield & Eccles, 2000). We employed the socializerperspective with which Eccles and colleagues argued that student expectancy and subjective taskvalues are influenced by their surroundings, including the instructors and learning environments(Eccles, 2007).
