Critical-path courses can create significant obstacles to graduationas a single DFW (grade of D, F, or withdrawal) grade in any course can impede a student'sability to graduate on time. Reducing course fail rates along the critical path significantly reducesthe students’ time to degree. Furthermore, research shows that students exposed to engineeringdesign [1] and research experiences [2] have a

However, the lack of physical interaction and engagement in online learning canresult in decreased student motivation and performance [1]. Gamification could be a solution tothis issue, by incorporating elements of game design to online learning environments, such asrewards, challenges, points, badges, leaderboards, and feedback [2, 3]. Gamification has becomea popular trend in recent years, and its popularity has spread across various fields such aseducation [3, 4], health [5], employment [6], commerce [7
