dc.description.abstractHighlighting streaks of consecutive activity significantly increased students engagement with an online math platform, particularly by encouraging frequent use by students who use the platform at least once. Students whose streaks were highlighted showed measurable improvements in math achievement, demonstrating the potential of gamified behavioral interventions to enhance educational outcomes. Nudges that involve highlighting streaks could be used more broadly in education and other areas to promote desirable behaviors.
