Question
- Can I create a leaderboard for my students?
- Can I add gamification elements to my courses?
- What gamification tools does Thinkific have?
Solution
Built-in Thinkific Features
Yes! Our Digital Badges feature allows you to celebrate and incentivize progress as students earn badges for accomplishments like course completions, sign-ins, and tenure. Each badge can unlock rewards of your choosing, from access to exclusive content and communities to discount offers on additional content and more!
Another great option to motivate your students is to use the Learning Paths feature to encourage course and path completion in a fun and engaging way!
Third-Party Options
Need more gamification options to better engage and motivate students? We have some great 3rd party apps available through the Thinkific App Store!
- DialogForm: create conversation-style lessons, earning points for correct answers
- Mazetec: engaging role-plays, real-world simulations, and interactive scenarios
- Motrain: students earn coins by enrolling in courses and referring their friends
- Pointagram: students earn points by completing lessons, with leaderboards
You may also want to try online tools such as H5P, which allows you to create interactive content. This can then be added to a Multimedia Lesson.
