• Qualitative Analysis of Gamification Elements• Still preliminary results• There is no clear pattern between gamification elements and learning x levels• Gamification Elements have positive and negative correlation to learning

• Probably due to Gamification Design• Gamification can have positive and negative impact on learning;

• Variation in the literature• External Threat to validity

Hypothesis: Gamification Design has a direct impact on the benefits of gamification in education
