Following, part 2 focus on explaining data-driven gamification design concepts as well as a research framework on how to use data mining algorithms to analyze and interpret data to generate strategies that can be used in education domain. It also presents a conceptual framework on how to apply those strategies in the education domain, focusing on the teacher and instructor; Finally, part 3 presents discussions regarding the concepts covered in the book, as well as possible research directions
