​My favorite gamification practice is spaced repetition with points and streaks, which Memrise uses to keep learners coming back. Every time you review words, you earn points, keep a daily streak, and unlock higher levels. It feels like playing a game, but in reality your brain is being trained to remember information at the right moment before you forget it.

To present this, I designed a small game called “Memory Quest”.

In the game, players travel through different “language worlds.” Each world represents a learning tool or practice, such as flashcards, streaks, or levels. When players answer vocabulary questions correctly, they gain energy and move forward. If they make mistakes, they must repeat older words, which shows how spaced repetition works.

The benefits are clear: the game keeps learners motivated, helps them remember words for longer, and makes studying less boring. However, there are also risks. Some players may focus too much on keeping their streak or collecting points instead of actually understanding the language. Others might feel stressed if they miss a day.

​Memrise is a mobile application I used to improve my vocabulary and learn new languages in a practical way. It uses short videos of native speakers and quick exercises to help users remember words and phrases more easily.

The app develops listening and reading skills while also helping with correct pronunciation. I would recommend Memrise to my peers because it is engaging, easy to use, and makes learning feel natural and effective.

Hello Talk

I have used HelloTalk, a mobile application, to learn a new language, when I downloaded for first time I was trying to learn more english. HelloTalk connects you with native speakers around the world, allowing you to practice speaking, writing, and listening in a real-life context. You can chat via text, voice messages, or even make calls, and native speakers correct your mistakes directly.

The only problem is sometimes people use it to flirt with, and there some options of payment.​​But on my own experience I advanced a lot and I would recomend it.​

​​​Duolingo

Description: Duolingo is a language-learning app that gamifies learning by using points, levels, streaks, and badges. People who practice it complete short exercises to practice vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. And then you earn experience points (XP) and allow progression through levels.

Benefits:

  • Motivates learners with streaks, levels, and rewards.

  • Makes learning a new language fun and interactive.

  • Allows learners to practice on their own.

Risks:

  • Learners may focus more on maintaining streaks than on deep understanding.

  • Some advanced concepts might require additional study outside the app.

Game Name: “Duolingo Adventure: Learn the Tools”

It would be the creation of 3 simple stories game using Duolingo-style mechanics. Each player will “level up” by answering questions about gamification tools in the story. Each level represents a different tool:

  • Level 1: Duolingo (badges)

  • Level 2: Kahoot (quizzes)

  • Level 3: Classcraft (role-playing, rewards)

Completing each level gives players a badge and a short explanation of the tool, its benefits, and risks the people who get more points wins, also at the end of the class we will make a short summary about their favourite tool and why.

An example for one of the question on the story of this first level would be: What do you earn in Duolingo by completing lessons and maintaining a daily streak?

a) Experience (XP) and virtual coins
b) Access to live classes
c) Only a final certificate

This game can be built through the use of Genially.

It might sound repetitive, but I recommend Duolingo. I've used it for several years and I'm sure it's one of the best apps for learning languages. That said, when you're on a long streak, do everything you can to maintain it, because losing it will lead to demotivation—or at least it usually does for me.​

Duolingo is one of the most representative learning tools of gamification today, designed to transform language learning into an interactive and addictive experience. Its methodology is based on the use of game mechanics such as daily streaks, which encourage retention and habit formation through psychological engagement, and competitive leagues, which boost motivation through social comparison. Through an immediate feedback system, where successes are celebrated with satisfying sounds and mistakes deduct "lives," the platform reduces the friction of traditional learning, allowing the user to progress intuitively while receiving constant gratification based on the accumulation of experience points (XP).​​

Nicos Weg from Deutsche Welle. I used it to learn German, and it’s the best free resource out there — seriously. It’s structured like a real course, not just random vocabulary. Every lesson is built around a video story, so you learn grammar and phrases in context, not isolation. Exercises are varied, speaking practice included, and it covers A1 to B1 completely free, no ads, no paywall. I actually understood cases by the end of it. If you’re learning German and tired of apps that teach you how to say “the apple” but not how to order coffee, use this.​

My favorite gamification tool is Kahoot!. It’s simple: you project questions, students join with a code, and suddenly everyone cares about getting the right answer. Points, speed, leaderboard chaos — it works because it taps into ego and fun.

I once made a Kahoot! to teach people about gamification itself. Called it “You Think You Know Gamification?”. One round asked: “You finish a module and get a badge. Why?” Options: A) You’re special, B) Dopamine, C) The system tracks you. Correct answer? Dopamine. But the risk is real — students start chasing badges instead of understanding. Another round: “You see 80% complete. You…” Everyone finishes. We hate leaving things undone. That’s progress bars working their magic. But empty progress? Filled bar, empty brain.

Leaderboards? Some students get motivated. Others see 24th place and mentally check out. Streaks? Duolingo guilt-tripping you at 10 PM works until it doesn’t — then it’s just anxiety.

So yeah, Kahoot! is brilliant. But gamification isn’t just adding points and calling it engaging. Done right, it tricks you into learning. Done wrong, it’s just noise with confetti.​

​Duolingo uses gamification—XP, levels, streaks, badges, and leaderboards—to make language learning engaging. These tools boost motivation, encourage regular practice, and track progress, but can also shift focus from learning to points, stress slower learners, or create unhealthy competition. A simple game to teach this is “Gamify Your Learning”: teams draw a gamification tool, give a 1-minute example showing its use, benefit, and risk, earn points for creativity, and track scores on a leaderboard, letting learners experience gamification firsthand.

I have used Coursera develop new skills in finance and data analysis, and I highly recommend it to my peers. The platform offers structured courses from top universities, with video lectures, quizzes, and practical assignments. Its biggest benefit is flexibility because you can learn at your own pace while still gaining high-quality, certified knowledge. It is especially useful for students who want to upgrade their skills beyond regular university classes.

Gamification tool: GooseChase

Description: I suggest using GooseChase, a platform for creating real-world digital scavenger hunts. Instead of answering quizzes at a desk, students use their phones to complete missions around the classroom or campus. It blends physical interaction with digital tools, making it perfect for exploring how technology impacts our environment.

Benefits and Risks: The main benefit is that it encourages active learning and collaboration, helping students connect digital concepts to real-world examples. A risk is that the technology itself can be distracting; students might focus more on the app than the cultural lesson, or technical issues with phones could interrupt the flow.

Proposed Game: To demonstrate this, I propose a game called "Digital Culture Hunt."

We divide the class into teams of 3-4. Using the GooseChase app, teams have 15 minutes to complete 3 missions related to culture and digitalization:

  1. Photo Mission: Find an example in the building where technology has replaced a traditional practice (like a digital notice board replacing a corkboard).

  2. Video Mission: Record a 15-second interview with a peer about one app that changed their daily habits.

  3. Text Mission: Solve a riddle to find a QR code hidden in the room that links to a definition of "Digital Native."

At the end, we project the live feed of photos and videos to discuss how digitalization is reshaping our shared culture.​

One mobile app that really helped me learn a new skill is Duolingo. I started using it to learn Portuguese because I was planning to travel to Rio de Janeiro for Carnival, and I didn’t want to feel completely lost with the language. What I liked most is that the lessons are short and interactive, so it’s easy to practice every day without feeling overwhelmed. The app helped me improve my vocabulary and basic conversations, especially useful phrases for traveling. I also found the streak system motivating because it encouraged me to stay consistent. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to start learning a new language in a simple and practical way.​

One gamification tool commonly used in the learning process is Kahoot, an interactive quiz platform that turns learning into a game. Kahoot allows teachers and students to create real-time quizzes where participants earn points based on speed and accuracy. This competitive and playful environment increases motivation, engagement, and participation, making learning feel more dynamic and enjoyable.

The main benefits of Kahoot include encouraging active participation, reinforcing knowledge through repetition, and creating a fun classroom atmosphere. However, there are also associated risks. Some learners may focus more on winning than understanding the content, and the competitive aspect can create pressure or anxiety for certain students.

To present gamification tools and their impact, I created a small Kahoot-style game where players answer questions about different gamification practices, their benefits, and their risks.
