Moodle for Motivating Learners

This is an adaptation of the Moodle Tools Guide with a gamification twist. The basic concepts of understanding different types of motivation also apply to other LMS / eLearning Technologies.

The Moodle for Motivating Learners Tool guide shows how  Moodle (or other LMS) activities are matched to Bartle’s Player Types: Achievers, Socialisers, Explorers and Killers.
