Education, especially programming education, is essential for society along with nowadays technological developments. Face-to-face learning was deemed less effective, so e-learning were developed to facilitate the learning process better. However, existing e-learning applications have the disadvantage of being boring and unable to motivate users in learning. To solve this problem, a programming learning interaction design is created using gamification approach, e.g. levels, process bars, points, social interactions, and challenges. The result of this final project is an interaction design prototype made with AdobeXD. Based on the analysis, it was found that this design must have usability goals effective to use and easy to learn. On the other hand, user experience goals that must be fulfilled are motivating, enjoyable, and helpful. Tests were carried out using the SUS (System Usability of Scale) questionnaire, the SEQ (Single Ease Question) questionnaire, the IMI (Intrinsic Motivation Inventory) questionnaire, observation, and interviews. The high-fidelity test results showed that the high-fidelity prototype has reached the usability goals effective to use, marked by 100% completion of tasks and easy to learn, marked by a decreasing learning curve. User experience goals motivating, enjoyable, and helpful are also achieved through this prototype, indicated by the average IMI score (from a maximum value of 7) of 6.52 on the Interest / Enjoyment subscale; 6,8 on the Value / Usefulness subscale; 1,2 on the Pressure / Tension subscale. The overall results of this test indicate that by using this prototype, users feel motivated in learning.
