Abstract

This study explores the integration of game-based apprenticeship models in secondary school chemistry education as a strategy for mentoring students and promoting social value transmission. It focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of these models in enhancing practical chemistry skills and instilling collaborative ethics, discipline, and scientific inquiry. The research leverages gamification to foster student engagement while utilizing mentorship to personalize learning experiences. Employing a survey design, data were collected using a structured questionnaire from principal officers of Coal City University. Data analysis employed mean and standard deviation with a 2.5 cut-off mark. Findings revealed moderate support for game-based mentorship as a viable strategy, though gaps exist in policy integration and access to digital resources. The study aligns with contemporary educational reforms advocating interactive and socially constructive pedagogies. It concludes that embedding mentorship into game-based chemistry labs can significantly improve learning outcomes and value transmission. The paper recommends institutional support, digital resource investment, and teacher capacity building for effective implementation
