Abstract-Students' motivation is an important factor in ensuring the success of e-learning implementation. In order to ensure students is motivated to use e-learning, motivational design has been used during the development process of e-learning applications. The use of gamification in learning context can help to increase student motivation. The ARCS+G model of motivational design is used as a guide for the gamification of learning. This study focuses on the influence of gamification on students' motivation in using elearning applications based on the ARCS+G model. Data from the Instructional Materials Motivation Scale (IMMS) questionnaire, were gathered and analyzed for comparison of two groups (one control and one experimental) in attention, relevance, confidence, and satisfaction categories. Based on the result of analysis, students from the experimental group are more motivated to use e-learning applications compared with the controlled group. This proves that gamification affect students' motivation when used in elearning applications.Index Terms-Gamification, Motivational Design, ARCS Model, ARCS+G Model.

ARCS model is a motivational design model for learning environments to stimulate and sustain learner motivation using the problem-solving approach. The ARCS model often used to identify and solve problems in a systematic way to motivate a learner in classroom learning or e-learning environment. The gamification of learning provides a useful technique to drive engagement and motivation in applying game mechanics and dynamics into learning activities. In spite of the success of gamification of learning, there are also failures. The proper method is needed to integrate gamification into learning. In this paper, we propose an enhanced ARCS model for gamification of learning called ARCS+G. The ARCS+G model is aimed to provide a solution for the problems in utilizing gamification of learning.

Purpose: A Social Networking Site (also social networking service or social media) is a platform to make people connected and share anything about them. The purpose of this research to construct a framework for the Development of Social Networking Site Skill to help women in rural areas to face the growth of ICT. This paper discusses how the proposed framework can help them to develop their skills of marketing using the SNS. This kind of effort, hopefully could empower the targeted marginalized group with the knowledge of information engineering, increase their awareness and utilization of ICT in their everyday actions. Methodology: The data obtained are the result of on-going projects in Setiu Wetlands, Terengganu.  Community rural women in Setiu Wetlands are respondent for this study. A total of 30 people (identified as women entrepreneurs) were respondents and profile data was preliminary studies about the skills and existing ICT literacy and internet use. Main Findings: Based on profiling data that have been collected, a framework for the development of skills in using social media as a business medium has been developed. Implications/Applications: The framework developed is expected to produce successful entrepreneurs from rural women communities. The entrepreneur will be an example to other women. This effort also is expected to help rural women community can improve the living standards of their families.
