Results of the analysis of learners’ motivation are given in Table 2. The mean score for intrinsic motivation construct in the game context
(M = 31.4, SD = 6.7) was higher than the mean score for intrinsic motivation construct in the school context (M = 27.6, SD = 7.2), and the
difference was statistically significant (t (12) = 2.21, p < .05). Although the mean scores for the intrinsic dimensions of challenge, curiosity,
and independent mastery in the game context were higher than the school context, the only significant difference was in the dimension of
independent mastery (t (12) = 2.63, p < .05).
