I loved using Octalysis to analyze a variety of game factors. Here, I used it to analyze a gamified unit that I created, which turned out to be fairly balanced. I look forward to using this incredibly helpful tool in the future!

At the outset of this course, I marveled at the gamified setup of EDTC 5303 within D2L and thought that creating a gamified course would be incredibly difficult to so. However, by the end of the course, I saw that it wasn’t impossible and I was able to outline my own gamified course. For my final course project, I chose to expand upon several pieces of gamification that I had worked on in the class so that I could gamify a course I’d been working on in real life.
