• Welcome!

    This site is a part of my diploma thesis - we are researching the effect of emotionally colored study materials on students, while comparing 2 specific approaches - competitive and playful.

    The competitive one applies slight pressure on the learners:

    • it uses a strict and provoking language
    • displays average results of other participants
    • provides statistics about the student's performance
    • displays a leaderboard

    The playful course strives to reward the users by:

    • displaying memes after certain activities
    • granting badges for achieving milestones in the course
    • using a playful language in narration
