摘要:Gamification in education helps to enhance courses to increase user engagement,
productivity and motivation. The current Information System Design course at Kaunas University
of Technology covers a broad range of topics on UML and students tend to lose their motivation
and engagement during the learning process. To combat this problem an idea of gamifying the
course was proposed. In this paper we have presented an implementation of gamified UML and
system design teaching course in Moodle environment. The Moodle course was developed, which
utilizes additional plugins for implementing the required gamification elements. In 2017 autumn
semester students were invited to participate in gamified course, their activity in the course was
recorded and analyzed. Surveys’ results indicate that students enjoyed gamified course, and plan to
continue using it in the future.
