Abstract

Gamification has gained traction as a transformative strategy in higher education, particularly in enhancing engagement and learning within complex disciplines like Supply Chain Management (SCM). This study investigates the educational effectiveness of Logispreneur 101, a STEM-aligned board game designed to simulate real-world SCM scenarios. Anchored in Self-Determination Theory and Flow Theory, the research evaluates how game mechanics; collaboration, competition, and decision-making; affect student satisfaction, with perceived learning effectiveness acting as a mediating variable. Employing a quasi-experimental design, 150 undergraduate students from University Technology MARA participated in four supervised gameplay sessions. Quantitative data collected via pre- and post-test surveys were analysed using paired t-tests, correlation, regression, and mediation analysis. Results demonstrated a significant increase in student satisfaction post-gameplay (p
