Complex Gamification Platform Based on Moodle System
Barna, Balázs; Fodor, Szabina
International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Cognition and Exploratory Learning in the Digital Age (CELDA) (16th, Cagliari, Italy, Nov 7-9, 2019)
Using an e-learning system as an educational tool has become a common practice among university courses. A well-structured e-learning system can not only support the course as a storage place of materials but can help the students to learn the given subjects. The Moodle (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment) e-learning environment provides a wide scale of possibilities to create a student-centered, highly manageable course interface. The tool is given; however, the motivation of students is rarely satisfying. Tough the success of a course mostly depends on the teaching materials, using gamification principles can enhance the motivation level of students. The aim of this paper is to propose a structure built up from the core elements of Moodle, existing plugins and suggested developments, which could provide a properly gamified Moodle course that fosters the students to gain motivation for learning better.
