Amazing course, opens up your eyes and makes you realise that bagdes that you get on some website is a clever gamification trick to keep you engaged! Nice and interesting course!

That's super cool. Exceed my expectation 200%. My most valuable take away are self-determination theory, flow, importance of intrinsic motivation, and design framework. Thanks a lot!

I really liked the content and the structure of the course, but as the material is already almost ten years old the examples are very outdated.

Good content with triggering assignments. I find the video's less engaging and recommend reading the transcripts.

Unfortunately the course is aimed at the business side of gamification and nowhere that is stated, therefore, I lost interest. Even the syllabus does not outright state it, so it was a bit misleading. Maybe change the course name to "Gamification for businesses" or "The business side of Gamification".

Good content but a bad course. It doesn't have clear rules and is not consistent. I recommend
enrolling to have access to the videos and the references, but don't face it as a serious course.

Progressing a bit slow at times, and too often stating the obvious.
Positives: Good frameworks though, and plenty of examples.

This is 15 years out of date. Why is it still on the platform? So much has changed in the industry, this course is a waste of time. It is also incredibly long and repetitive. Poorly paced with almost zero engagement. The assessment that I took was terribly written, testing recall of unimportant trivia rather than checking for understanding of conceptual knowledge. It was the type of thing you expect from a novice not a professor.
