    Git Ranking: Developing a Gamified Application for Managing and Motivating Agile Teams as a GitHub App

    Bachelor of Software Engineering - University of Brasília (Brazil) · Brasília, DF

    2026
    GitHub
    This work addresses the challenges faced by software development teams in maintaining continuous engagement and the visibility of individual progress within agile methodologies. The main objective is to develop a gamified tool to support Scrum, designed as an integrated GitHub App for team management and motivation, integrating elements of the Octalysis framework to balance intrinsic and extrinsic motivators. The adopted methodology is classified as applied and exploratory, with a mixed approach. The methodological process included identifying the users' motivational profile through the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI), correlating it to the Core Drives of Octalysis, and selecting gamification techniques via the Judges' Technique. As results, the work presents the specification of functional requirements prioritized by the MoSCoW method, the solution architecture based on the consumption of GitHub Webhooks processed via a Node.js backend and presented in a React/Next.js interface. High-fidelity prototypes were developed to materialize the proposal, focusing on a metrics dashboard and achievements profile with gamification elements, such as badges, progress bars, and continuous visual feedback based on the actual actions of developers in the repositories. The study concludes the planning and design stage of the solution, establishing the foundations for the implementation and validation that will occur in the next phase of the project.

    Atloria: A Gamified Platform for Data Structure Visualization in Augmented Reality

    Bachelor of Software Engineering - University of Brasília (Brazil) · Brasília, DF

    2026
    GitHub Zenodo
    Learning data structures and algorithms is a recurring challenge in computing-related courses, as it requires the understanding of abstract concepts, dynamic operations, and specific ways of organizing information. Structures such as stacks, queues, and linked lists require students to develop mental models capable of representing insertions, removals, searches, and state changes that are not always easily understood through traditional teaching approaches. In this context, this undergraduate thesis aimed to develop and evaluate Atloria, an educational mobile application that uses augmented reality and gamification to support the teaching and learning of data structures. The solution was designed based on a literature review, requirements elicitation and prioritization, data modeling, architectural definition, and the construction of a functional prototype. The application was developed for Android devices, integrating Flutter, SQLite, Unity, and AR Foundation, and includes features such as authentication, onboarding, thematic rooms, narratives, mini missions, an achievement passport, immediate feedback, and interactive visualization through augmented reality. The proposed experience organizes learning as a gamified journey, in which users interact with visual representations of data structures and track their progress through symbolic rewards and performance records. The validation process included technical tests, software quality analysis, functional tests, and user evaluation, making it possible to verify the operation of the main implemented features and collect perceptions regarding usability, engagement, and learning. The results indicated a positive evaluation of the experience, especially regarding visual organization, ease of use, and the interest generated by the gamified elements. It is concluded that the integration of augmented reality and gamification has potential as a complementary didactic resource to make the study of data structures more visual, interactive, and motivating.

    Journey - the use of RPG in a learning process

    2023
    In the last decade gamification has gained greater prominence due to its ability to generate motivation and engagement by applying game elements in non-gaming contexts. The accession of gamification in the teaching process is a way to encourage the participation and constancy of students during learning. The RPG (Role-Playing Game) is a genre of game characterized mainly by four elements - the story narrative, the characters, the progress system and the challenges. These RPG elements are key to generating interest in players. When applied in the teaching environment, the RPG can promote greater interaction and immersion of students. Taking this into consideration, this work presents a learning process that applies gamification concepts together with RPG elements, called Jornada, whose proposal is to increase student engagement and motivation. From the application of this process in a Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) class at the University of Brasilia (UnB), it was possible to collect information used to evaluate the feasibility of using the process in the classroom.

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2022
    Identifying factors that influence academic dropout is crucial for coordinators to take preventive actions against student desertion. This thesis aims to explore the current state of research in the field, seeking to understand the main factors associated with academic dropout and how they can be applied in predictive models of dropout. A quantitative, exploratory, and explanatory applied research was conducted, using case study techniques and bibliographic research. The systematic literature review indicated that dropout could be predicted by academic, demographic, and learning factors. Using these factors, predictive models were developed with the help of machine learning algorithms, whose predictions proved sensitive to changes in course flows. It concludes that academic, demographic, and learning factors are effective in predicting dropout, with the selection and application method of these factors being crucial for achieving accurate predictive results. Moreover, the application of academic factors in predictive models requires consideration of the specific context of the analyzed data.

    Systematic literature review on the use of frameworks in the construction of gamification in education

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2021
    The application of gamified processes in the field of education has become increasingly common over the last few decades. Each project has unique characteristics, utilizing different techniques and being applied across various modalities and levels of education. However, creating a gamification is not just about inserting game elements into a given activity. There are tools designed to assist in this creation process, providing a step-by-step guide that contains methods and mechanics to be followed by those wishing to develop a gamified project. This work presents a systematic review of the literature, aiming to find these tools, referred to as gamification frameworks or models, and to combine the data found with other extracted criteria such as the countries and the educational levels where these frameworks are used. This review was divided into three stages - planning, execution, and summarization. In the planning stage, the research question, search string, acceptance criteria, and information to be extracted were defined. In the execution, the review is carried out, with the selection of primary studies and data extraction. In the summarization, the results are generated through graphs. At the end, an evaluation was conducted, considering the results obtained on the use of gamification frameworks in conjunction with other extraction criteria used in the review.

Distraction occurs in an instant; a moment of inattention is all it takes for everyone to start checking notifications on their phones. The speed at which new technologies and software are adopted is only matched by the speed at which they are abandoned. Against this backdrop, an emerging strategy in various fields is the incorporation of playful elements as a means of fostering engagement, a concept known as gamification. While gamification proves to be a promising approach, it is essential that it continuously evolves to remain appealing and aligned with the expectations and development of its audience. A thorough analysis of a gamified initiative, aimed at identifying areas for improvement, is crucial for determining directions for evolution. Therefore, this study aims to define a strategy that enables the identification of potential improvements in gamified applications. Such improvements are highlighted by the evaluation of project indicators that measure usability and by direct feedback from users after testing the application. Direct interaction with users allows adjustments to be informed by the perspectives of those the project is intended for. The convergence of users' views in favor of the suggested improvements validates the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

    Gamified Software to Support Teaching and Learning Mathematics for Children

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2017
    The usage of software has grown as computers become popular. There have emerged, both in academia and in the market, technological solutions for several areas, among them education. On the other hand, classroom teaching and learning continues to suffer from classical educational problems such as lack of student and teacher motivation and lack of clear educational goals. And although software supports learning across a range of disciplines and ages, children’s audiences, especially in mathematics, have been little contemplated with the benefits that technological solutions can bring. Therefore, the use of pedagogical approaches, such as Bloom’s Taxonomy and Formative Assessments, together with gamification techniques, such as Octalysis, can be used to develop a technological solution that contemplates this public. The present work aims to design and develop software to assist the teaching and learning of mathematics for children in the classroom. Among the results obtained are the design of gamification in Octalysis, the types of questions and pedagogical approach to be used, besides the software itself in operation.

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2017
    In recent years, social media platforms have gained significant visibility in the technological landscape, becoming a predominant channel for communication and information dissemination among digital users. The Social Network About (RSA), a platform developed by a student from the University of Brasília, exemplifies this phenomenon by attracting users for initial use. However, it faces challenges in retaining these users over the long term. Gamification emerges as a promising methodology in this context, employing techniques designed to motivate and engage users in performing specific activities, maintaining their interest through different stages of software interaction. This study proposes the integration of a gamification framework into the Social Network About (RSA), positioning itself as a technological development project. The aim is to overcome the user retention challenges identified in RSA by applying gamification principles that encourage continuous and engaged user participation. Through this approach, the goal is not only to increase the platform's usage time but also to enrich the user experience, promoting a deeper and more meaningful engagement with the social network. Therefore, this work represents a valuable contribution to the field of social software development, by exploring the application of gamification strategies as a means to improve the user-platform interaction dynamics in social networks.

    Employees are the main assets of software organizations and the software industry is characterized by frequent technological changes, which entail a continuous flow of new knowledge. Due to the volume of knowledge, software organizations have problems in identifying the content, location and use of knowledge, that is, difficulty in managing this knowledge. The Experiment Factory can be considered to represent the knowledge management initiative. A basic step inside the Experiment Factory is the experience base. The purpose of this work is the abstraction of the process of building a experience base for R & D laboratories, inserted in the context of Software Engineering teaching of a Brazilian public university, and that do not have a defined knowledge management process. To do this, was executed a case study in two R & D laboratories - ITRAC (Information Technology and Research Center) and LFS (Software Factory Laboratory), idealized from the need to create an environment that proposes to students, Experiences related to the development of software, processes and methodologies in this area. The implementation of the experience bases for R & D laboratories could be realized based on a process of structuring the base of experiments, within an Experiment Factory model that has been adapted to the context of R & D laboratories. The process adopted fulfills the objective of the work, since through it, was possible to build a base of experiences to maintain the knowledge generated by the objects of study. With this, the OwnCloud tool has become the experience base of the ITRAC and LFS R & D laboratories.

    Application of Natural Language Processing - A Support Tool for Correcting Essay Questions

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2016
    In the context of distance education (DE), which has been experiencing global expansion, one of the most significant challenges is the scalability of evaluating essay questions. This challenge impacts the efficiency of tutors and the quality of feedback provided to students, as grading such questions requires considerable time. To address this issue, a support system for pre-evaluation was developed, utilizing natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) to automate the assignment of preliminary grades to student responses. The proposed system is divided into two main parts - the first applies semantic similarity algorithms to compare student responses with provided answer keys; the second part is a web interface that facilitates the registration of questions and answer keys, submission of responses by students, and allows the tutor to evaluate the responses. The accuracy of the system is continuously improved through tutor feedback, enabling ML to adjust the evaluation criteria as needed. The system was tested in the course on the fundamentals of computer architecture, where it demonstrated the ability to assign meaningful grades to student responses and revealed an improvement in the accuracy of evaluations based on tutor feedback. It is concluded that the pre-evaluation support system offers a promising solution to the challenges faced in evaluating essay questions in DE environments, enhancing the scalability of the grading process and the quality of feedback provided, with potential for application across various fields of knowledge.

    A study on the contribution of the Science Without Borders Program to the development of behavioral competencies in software engineering

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2016
    Behavioral competencies relate to knowledge, attitudes and non-technical skills associated to the social, personal and cognitive areas. Behavioral competencies are as important as technical skills regarding the success of any software project. Many times, these skills are strongly linked to the achievement of tasks performed by software engineers. Some ways of developing these skills are related to personal exposure to new challenges and situations. The Science Without Borders (CSF) is a program which aims, among other objectives, to encourage, practice and develop non-technical skills in the Brazilians’ science students. The graduation in Software Engineering is one of the Brazilian courses that can make use of this program. However, what are the real benefits related to behavioral competencies for Software Engineering students who participate in CSF academic exchange project? The present document aims to answer this question by mapping the essential behavioral competencies for Software Engineering students and verifying how the CsF affects them. The verification of how former FCTE‘s Software Engineering students observe the development of these type of competencies was obtained by a survey. According to the results of this project, the students believe that not only do they communicate better in portuguese, but also in different languages, they’ve acquired a better critical thinking ability, also they‘re more responsible and sensible to different cultures. Summarizing it, in their perspectives the CSF experience gave the support to the development oF some important behavioral competencies expected for a software engineer.

    Support Tool for the Construction of Gamification Projects

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2016
    Motivation is the driving force that leads people to achieve goals, objectives, or solve problems. This project proposes the creation of a tool that, through the use of gamification elements, allows the user to shape that motivation. The idea of using gamification to make people feel as motivated in real life as they do while playing has been explored by various authors in recent years. Integrating technology with gamification aims to extend the reach of gamification to the public. Gamification not only uses game elements to motivate but also generates engagement, making people committed to their personal goals, corporate objectives, or any other cause where gamification is applied. The development of the tool began with a literature review, from which a specific gamification model was selected to form the core of the tool. The initial proposal was crafted with the intention of providing users with a support tool for the construction of gamification projects. The developed tool aligns with this philosophy.

    Evaluation of algorithms for sorting digital documents retrieved in search

    Senior Project (Bachelor of Software Engineering) - University of Brasília (Brazil)

    2013
    The quest for information originated from libraries, where it was possible to retrieve necessary data through consultations using catalog cards, organizing books by title, author, year, or publisher. With technological advancements, this process was automated, allowing these tasks to be performed on computers. However, due to the vast volume of available information, efficiently finding specific information can be challenging, making the search process exhaustive and complex. To address this issue, there are studies and implementations concerning the sorting of retrieved information. It is also relevant to apply techniques for customized queries based on criteria defined by users. This work aims to analyze the effectiveness of dynamic and static algorithms in sorting retrieved information, exploring the customization of queries in open-source search engines. We will evaluate which algorithm offers greater accuracy, using precision x recall metrics, which allow for a degree of customization in queries, including user profiles from the four engineering courses at the University of Brasília - Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologias em Engenharia (FCTE), and how software engineering can enhance the sorting and retrieval of information.
