Courses and Leaderboards

After a student has created a KlickerUZH account, and joined a course as outlined in the account section, they can access all available course-related resources. To be able to participate in the leaderboard and other course challenges and collect points themselves, students must actively join a leaderboard as shown below.

The leaderboard shows the current ranking of all participating students in the course. The ranking is based on the total number of points collected by the participants. The leaderboard is only visible to students who have joined it. By clicking on other participants, further information like their level, experience points and achievements can be shown, if they agreed to that information being visible in the scope of the course.

Lecturers can specify challenges, set prices and define custom achievements for the course. The leaderboard is a great way to motivate students to participate in the course and to reward them for their efforts and resembles one of the backbones of the gamification concept of KlickerUZH.
