Summary: | Many educators have chosen to use board games to enhance the way of
delivering course contents. A board game will help students understand an
education concept quickly through experiential learning, where they manage
and solve problems in a real situation. This study is focusing on the
evaluation of a board game, namely Global Zakat Game (GZG) as an
edutainment tool among various levels of users at learning institutions in
Malaysia. The respondents were purposively selected from a Malaysian
national competition organized at Islamic Science University of Malaysia
(USIM) on 8 November 2017. A questionnaire was distributed among 235
participants from various levels of learning institutions during the national
event to evaluate the practical use of GZG as an edutainment tool in
increasing their understanding on Zakat theories and practice. The result
indicated that the use of GZG as a Zakat edutainment tool has a positive
impact on users and players as it helps them to learn more about Zakat
theories and practice between high (4.65) and moderate high (3.95) of mean
scores. Most of the respondents mentioned that they enjoyed playing GZG as
it involves experiential learning and learning by doing. |
