I was able to complete my teacher training studies in the subjects computer science and music at the University of Potsdam with distinction and was honored for the best master's thesis 2021 in the field of educational technologies by the  GI  at DELFI 2022 . I would like to thank everyone involved for this success. My special thanks go to Prof. Dr. Ulrike Lucke and Prof. Dr. Raphael Zender for taking on the assessment and Axel Wiepke, who supervised my master's thesis with great commitment and interest. The aim of my master's thesis is to use the case study of basic music theory training to analyze whether learning opportunities can be supported by a gamified interactive prototype of a learning environment. The following research question is asked: To what extent does gamification affect the motivation of learners to deal with the topic of (musical) functional analysis? The study showed that the gamification of a learning application according to the process model developed basically has the potential to positively influence some aspects of the user experience. In non-university contexts, this approach appears to be particularly promising - more precisely where the focus is on increasing the joy of use or increasing immersion. The study provides new insights into the emotional impact of gamification and a systematic approach to the gamification of learning applications. Further research could build on these findings by examining the emotional impact of gamification and its impact on motivation. In addition, one should also consider gamification from a decision-theoretical perspective and develop analysis methods with which it can be decided whether the use of gamification to increase motivation in a specific use case is expedient.
