Analysis and Design of an eLearning Platform Featuring Learning Analytics and Gamification

This paper presents the analysis and design of an innovative web-based eLearning platform featuring Learning Analytics and Gamification called ICT-FLAG. A previous contribution presented the software development framework that will guide and support the effective construction of the platform. Following the selected framework, this paper defines the requirements of this platform and propose a solution to satisfy those requirements in terms of software artifacts. The design includes challenging non-functional requirements, such as scalability, security and performance. The research reported in this paper is currently undertaken within the project "Enhancing ICT education through Formative assessment, Learning Analytics and Gamification" (ICT-FLAG) funded by the Spanish Government.
