Abstract

This paper presents the current state-of-the-art in applying Gamification Analytics (GA) techniques in the e-learning context and presents the design, implementation, and early evaluation of the Interactive Gamification Analytics Tool (IGAT) for the learning management system Moodle. By exploring existing work on GA, we provide insights into current problems and challenges of gamification monitoring. Next, we reflect on a GA requirements model and analyze existing GA tools. From this, we incorporate key aspects in the design and development of IGAT.
