Gamification Practices in Museums
Öz: Museums as cultural institutions serve a large number of audiences. To communicate effectively with their visitors and
attract new audiences, museums have to develop new methods and tools. The competition from other alternative leisure
time activities makes it increasingly harder for museums to attract visitors. “Gamification” is an effective method for
museums to interact with their visitors. Gamification tools have already been implemented successfully in education,
health, self-improvement, and other areas. There are various studies on the utilization of gamification in marketing,
business, and communication as well. Yet studies on the gamification of museum experiences are scant. The purpose of
this study is to close this gap, identify possible gamification methods in museums, and explore the impact of gamification
on the visitor experience. In order to do so, interviews were conducted with eight museum professionals. Results indicate
that gamification is an engaging tool for a meaningful museum experience for visitors. In addition to the benefits of
gamification, some difficulties and challenges were also explored

- Although references to review articles can be an efficient way to guide readers to a body of literature, review articles do not always reflect original work accurately. Readers should thereforebe provided with direct references to original research sources whenever possible. On the other hand, extensive lists of references to original work on a topic can use excessive space on the printed page. Small numbers of references to key original papers often serve as well as more exhaustive lists, particularly since references can now be added to the electronic version of published papers, and since electronic literature searching allows readers to retrieve published literature efficiently. Papers accepted but not yet included in the issue are published online in the Early View section and they should be cited as “advance online publication”. Citing a “personal communication” should be avoided unless it provides essential information not available from a public source, in which case the name of the person and date of communication should be cited in parentheses in the text. For scientific articles, written permission and confirmation of accuracy from the source of a personal communication must be obtained
