The quasi-experimental approach was used to compare the first experimental group that used the proposed mobile application based on digital incentives, and the second experimental group that used the same mobile application but excluding digital incentives.

A measure was developed for students' engagement in learning through digital sources during the Covid-19 pandemic, the scale included three domains: the cognitive domain, the behavioral domain, and the emotional domain, and each domain have eight indicators.
