We also look at the role of emotions in this process, showing that what doesn't attract emotion doesn't capture attention and doesn't trigger meaningful learning that involves students in the act of learning. Based on a case study carried out with 4th grade students in a Portuguese context, we look at gamified didactic courses that can help increase student motivation and involvement during the course, arousing different types of emotions.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/6/20/770/114/6207701143_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "43.00", "online_price" : "43.00", "our_price" : "43.00", "club_price" : "43.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
