Abstract

This study examines how generative AI can simplify the integration of gamification into classroom-based cybersecurity education. While gamification is effective in engaging students, its use in classroom settings is limited due to instructor workload. To address this, five AI-powered gamified labs were developed for a network security course, incorporating task scenarios, self-guided exercises, rewards, leaderboards, and tailored feedback. The research evaluates the benefits and challenges of using AI to enhance gamification and its impact on cybersecurity education.
