In Detail
This book describes how teachers can use Gamification design within the Moodle Learning Management System. Game elements can be included in course design by using, badges, rubrics, custom grading scales, forums, and conditional activities. Moodle courses do not have to be solo-learning experiences that replicate Distance Education models.
The Gamification design process starts by profiling players and creating levels of achievement towards meeting learning outcomes. Each task is defined, valued, and sequenced. Motivation loops are devised to keep the momentum going. In a gaming studio, this approach would require a team of specialists with a large budget and time frames. Preparing for a class rarely has these optimal conditions. The approach used in this book is to introduce game elements into the course design gradually. First, apply gamification to just one lesson and then build up to gamifying a series of lessons over a term. Each example will indicate the difficulty level and time investment. Try it out to see what is most effective with your learners and choose wisely in your use of technology.
By the end of the book, you will be able to create gripping Moodle courses for effective and efficient learning.

Tips are offered for new Moodlers and plugin extensions are suggested for advanced Moodlers. The focus of the book is on why you would want to use each activity rather than detailed technical descriptions.

Gamification in practice By Zivana Komlenov In this book Natalie Denmeade, who has developed an incredible reputation in the Gamification field and the educational applications of gaming, frames an exceptionally useful DIY approach to Gamification within the Moodle LMS. Her templates, advice, lessons, and learning strategiespermit an instructor to experiment with direct application of Gamification techniques in any Moodle course reducing the amount of time and efforts required to create a usable Moodle course that is truly effective and fun. Explaining the usage of core Moodle features in innovative ways is complemented by exploring recently developed options and plugins that offer dozens of ways that teachers can use game elements such as, badges, labels, rubrics, group assignments, custom grading scales, forums, and conditional activities. The framework and recommendations presented are mostly universal and as such they can be embedded in many other LMSs.
