The tourism industry in Algeria holds significant potential for economic diversification but continues to face challenges due to inadequate professional training and limited pedagogical innovation. Addressing this gap, the present study investigates the design, implementation, and evaluation of online gamified tourism education activities (OGETEA) on the Moodle platform as a pedagogical model to enhance student engagement and learning effectiveness. Employing a mixed-methods approach that combines descriptive and design-based research, the study integrates gamification principles such as feedback, autonomy, collaboration, and reward systems into online tourism courses. Three gamified activities were developed and tested among university tourism students. Quantitative data from surveys and activity logs, supported by qualitative insights from interviews, revealed that gamified online learning significantly improved students’ motivation, participation, and conceptual understanding of tourism studies. The results indicate that gamification not only promotes active learning and digital literacy but also strengthens students’ professional competencies relevant to the tourism and hospitality sectors.
