Level up! is a customisable block which a teacher can add to a course to give experience points to students as they progress through a course.
It displays their current level and progress towards the next level.
It adds an element of gamification to a course.

With the editing turned on in a course, select Level up! from the 'Add block' menu.
Access the block on the course page and click the configuration icon.
Give the block a title and description and save it again.
Links in the block allow to go to different areas of the block:
- Information - shows how many XP (experience points) are required for each level.
- Ladder - shows the students in order of levels and experience points
- Report - allows for filtering the students, levels and experience point and allows for manual editing of students' experience points via their progress bar.
- Settings -allows various options to be turned on or off and offers settings for preventing possible cheating.
