Gamification is a new emerging pedagogical technique in higher education to engage students into a non-game context during the last five years. A cyber enabled learning environment can provide a collaborative and sustainable platform for learners to continue studying outside the classroom and lecturing time. In this paper, we describe the design mechanisms of gamification used in a software testing cyber enabled learning environment, named WReSTT-CyLE (Web-Based Repository of Software Testing Tutorials – a Cyberlearning Environment) and the experimental results of class studies at Alabama A&M University. As a highly integrated online learning tool, other than gamification technology, WReSTT-CyLE

self-powered nodeswhich gather information or detect special events and communicate in a wireless fashion, withthe end goal of handing their processed data to a base station. Sensing, processing andcommunication are three key elements whose combination in one tiny device gives rise to a vastnumber of applications. Sensor networks provide endless opportunities but at the same time poseformidable challenges, such as the fact that energy is a scarce and usually non-renewableresource.2.1 WSN System Architecture, Network Topologies and StandardsWireless technology offers several advantages for those who can build wired and wirelesssystems and take advantage of the best technology for the application.

Curriculum and program competencies: Because of excessive advancement in technology,there are many tools and techniques are emerging in this field. It is a great challenge for traineesto stay up to date and mould with the changing technologies. The DSA programs are expectedfrom trainees that they would be skilled in different programs under DSA like data mining, datascience, data handling, and some programming languages as well as with basic databasetechnologies.

Forinformation retrieval, where these sequences represent keys of records, each nodecontains a pointer to the record of information with this sequence as its key. This datastructure can be used to represent the sequences of events where each branch of a noderepresents an event and each path in the tree represents a sequence of events. When apath terminates, it means that the corresponding sequence of events came to an end. Eachnode of the tree can be considered the outcome of a sequence at a particular time. Theconcatenation of events along the path from the root of the tree to this node is the causeof this outcome. At any node of the tree, the outcome can be evaluated. If the
