The purpose of this study is to evaluate the gamification impact on surveyors learning engagement in a case study carried out at Statistics Indonesia.
Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the gamification impact on surveyors learning engagement in a case study carried out at Statistics Indonesia.
Design/methodology/approach
This study adopted the design research methodology (DRM) research framework. The problem to be solved was analyzed and structured into a DRM’s impact model. A proposed solution was hypothesized and implemented as a Web-based online learning system. Evaluative data of users were collected and analyzed in the forms of logs, questionnaires, pre-test and post-test. Further, a quantitative statistical evaluation was performed to measure the engagement and knowledge gain of surveyors after using the gamified online learning system prototype.
Findings
This research showed a positive effect on the engagement of surveyors when using the proposed gamified system. In this case study, the gamified system performed better in enhancing surveyors’ knowledge and engagement, compared to the conventional method.
Research limitations/implications
This research was based on Statistics Indonesia's case study. For future research, other case studies can be performed to generalize the gamification impacts in other organizations and other learning subjects.
Practical implications
Based on the results study, an organization such as Statistics Indonesia is recommended to involve gamification in their online learning activities because it enhances significantly surveyors' engagement and knowledge gain.
Social implications
One important implication of the research is that the proposed solution is relatively easy and inexpensive to be introduced and appended into the existing online learning system at Statistics Indonesia. If all surveyors are well equipped with proper knowledge and skill, all surveys conducted by any national statistical organization will have an accurate description and condition about any subject being surveyed in the nation. This information is important for the ruling government in deciding what the best policy and strategy are to improve the nation's condition regarding the subject.
Originality/value
The proposed gamification system showed a better online training process and learning outcome. Statistical valuation indicated that there was an increased surveyors’ academic performance in terms of engagement and knowledge gain.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the competence of Nigerian quantity surveyors with a view to identify and assess required areas of interest.
Design/methodology/approach
A structured questionnaire was administered among relevant groups of respondent (quantity surveyors, architects, engineers, builders and clients) in Nigeria. The respondents were asked to give rating, on a five-point Likert scale, on the required competencies (variables) expected of Nigerian quantity surveyors. A mean item score statistical analysis was used to rank the variables and compare them within the different groups. The analysis was undertaken using the Statistical Packages for Social Science tool. In exploring the underlying relationship among the competence requirement, factor analysis statistical technique was used to categorize them into key components.
Findings
The results of the study identified required competencies and factorized them into three components. These are as follows: procurement and value management; commercial management; and communication and entrepreneurship.
Originality/value
The findings provide insight into the competencies needed to be incorporated and/or intensified in the training of quantity surveyors in Nigeria.
