Conclusion.
Differentiated learning expressed as teaching the similar material to all students using non-
identical instructional strategies, or it may need the teacher to deliver lessons at varying levels
of difficulty based on the skill of each student. Gamification promotes differentiation and
personalized instruction. The tasks are adapted to each individual student which allows them to
work at their own pace and their own level. It was found that there are a variety of games that
work positively for all students in classroom. Most of all, it is gratifying to teachers to see

students having fun in our classroom while working with the material. If a small portion of
teachers‘ enthusiasm for chemistry can be imparted to students through game play, it can be
said that job was done with satisfication.
