The Capella students were tasked with producing a gamification model and techniques that will be used in a climate change software portal and mobile app. The gamification feature needs to encourage citizens to perform certain tasks (both as individuals and within a community). While the project work was intended to be an early prototype, the team produced results of exceptional quality. During their detailed research effort they explored many potential gamification models, techniques and software frameworks. They produced a gamification canvas and detailed set of recommendations for system mechanics including badges, levels, leaderboards (with lovely custom graphics!). They approached gamification software providers to evaluate which products could deliver their proposed model. And they identified the legal and ethical requirements and considerations. Their recommendations are well-researched, practical, and logical. Just as importantly, their proposed gamification model is whimsical, fun, and highly personalized to Canadian culture and national identity. Overall the team's result exceeded our expectations and is a great credit to them!

The team was extremely professional and put in a great deal of effort to meet the needs of the project, despite it not being a perfect fit for their skill set. They also addressed security issues that had not been discovered by previous teams. I appreciate all the hard work they put into this project.

The team was incredibly professional, communicated extremely well, and met all the expectations of the course. I'm very satisfied and appreciative of the work they did.

The Capella students helped us design the features, information architecture, and requirements for a WordPress website we will use to run our annual hackathon event. They demonstrated enthusiasm, technical and product research skills, creativity and insight throughout the project, and that quality was evident when they presented their final report. They were always pleasant, professional, keen to understand our project goals and objectives, and willing to go the extra mile to help achieve them. In fact they provided value-add deliverables including sample coding, design sketches, and reports. Overall the team's result was of real value, and will be put to use immediately. I highly recommend their work.

The team was very organized and self directed. They presented their finding in a coherent and analytical manner. The information presented was well researched and what we were looking for in this partnership.

My experience with Capella University was satisfactory. I ended up with the name of a software program that I can use for my business which will be very helpful.

Great team. I asked a lot of them and they came very far. I would hope we might be able to use what they put together as a launching point for another project within Capella. Great job understanding the problem, working through some solutions and putting together suggestions.
