Abstract

Many learning environments are deserted by the learners, even if they are effective in supporting learning. Gamification is becoming a popular way to motivate users and enhance their participation on web-based activities, by adding game elements to the learning environment. But it still pays little attention to the individual differences among learners’ preferences as players. This paper presents a generic and adaptive gamification system that can be plugged on various learning environments. This system can be automatically personalised, based on an analysis of the interaction traces. We first present the architecture of the proposed system to support the genericity of the game elements. Then, we describe the user model supporting the adaptivity of the game elements.
