Adaptive gamification in Collaborative systems, a systematic mapping study

Abstract

Mass collaboration mediated by technology is now commonplace (Wikipedia, Quora, TripAdvisor). Online, mass collaboration is also present in science in the form of Citizen Science. These collaboration models, which have a large community of contributors coordinated to pursue a common goal, are known as Collaborative systems. This article introduces a study of the published research on the application of adaptive gamification to collaborative systems. The study focuses on works that explicitly discuss an approach of personalization or adaptation of the gamification elements in this type of system. It employs a systematic mapping design in which a categorical structure for classifying the research results is proposed based on the topics that emerged from the papers review. The main contributions of this paper are a formalization of the adaptation strategies and the proposal of a new taxonomy for gamification elements adaptation. The results evidence the lack of research literature in the study of adapting gamification in the field of collaborative systems. Considering the underlying cultural diversity in those projects, the adaptability of gamification design and strategies is a promissory research field.

Adaptive hypermedia system in times of COVID-19: Application in Management Accounting course 1 at the University of Havana.

“…The Moodle platform as virtual learning environments offers the opportunity to manage online courses with novel con gurations In this sense, the design of a prototype of the adaptive hypermedia system on a Moodle platform, allowed students to have access to personalized and relevant content for the course, in such a way that the cognitive effort was reduced and thus contributing to the success of the course. educational process (Ayastuy, Torres & Fernández, 2021). The use of adaptive techniques also made it possible to exploit new domain, adaptation, and user (student) models that guaranteed a content proposal that was considered, namely: the return of the response to affective and cognitive support; the level of progress, the quantity and complexity of the tasks solved.…”

“…The use of game elements in educational settings increases motivation for the suggested content and causes positive effects on the cognitive, affective, and academic performance of students (Deterding, Sicart, Nacke, O'Hara & Dixon2011). The adaptation strategies and the proposal of a new taxonomy for the adaptation of gami cation elements, show the adaptability of the design and the gami cation strategies in educational environments is a promising eld of research (Ayastuy, Torres & Fernández, 2021).…”

“…Mechanics will represent the basic components of the course, such as adaptation rules and their operation. The main mechanism that stimulates the above dynamics is the accumulation of points for carrying out the activities, which will have repercussions in an escalation of levels and new challenges of increasingly complex activities (Ayastuy, Torres & Fernández, 2021, Deterding, Sicart, Nacke, O 'Hara and Dixon, 2011, Klock, Gasparini, Pimenta & Hamari, 2020 4.4 Adaptive model and rule-based mechanism (Q5)…”

Systematic mapping of food safety outbreaks in the hospitality sector in the Dominican Republic

“…Hence, a systematic mapping exercise was carried out. This method was proposed for identifying data, categorising the data, analysing, summarising and reporting the findings of the subject of interest (Adhi Tama and Lim, 2021;Dalponte Ayastuy et al, 2021). There have been previous reviews on food related illnesses in the Caribbean, which have included food safety-related aspects, bacterial foodborne zoonoses and documentation of FBDOs (Guerra et al, 2016;Hull-Jackson and Adesiyun, 2019).…”

Relevance of non-activity representation in traveling user behavior profiling for adaptive gamification

“…Challenges are one of the most used game elements in gamified collaborative systems [3]. There are rigid challenges that are tight to the general rules of the gamification, and the emergence challenge offers flexibility to the player to solve them [8,10,22].…”
