Abstract

Gamification, as a form of inducing intrinsic motivation by using elements characteristic for games, is gaining more and more interest in educational institutions and among teachers. Notwithstanding the increasing number of available gamification textbooks, its practical implementation still requires substantial effort on instructor’s behalf. Although the popular Learning Management Systems already provide modules allowing to include gamification elements within the courses, making use of them is labor-intensive, and the range of provided features is very limited. The solution is to use a Learning Management System not only having a wide range of gamification features embedded already at its design stage, but also suitable for easy use by course designers and teachers. This paper proposes a detailed vision of the functional structure of such a system.
