This article proposes the use of gamification techniques to motivate students and cultivate the sense of a Community of Inquiry (CoI) through asynchronous discussions. Prior research is being examined to identify essential factors in relation to Communities of Inquiry. These factors provide key insights for the development of a CoI through the asynchronous discussions and thus, they guide the selection of learning analytic tools and gamification mechanisms within the course. In this article it is proposed that measuring and exploring the aforementioned factors by the instructors through learning analytics for rewarding good social practice through gamification, promotes cognitive presence. This process is relevant to educators interested in developing critical thinking skills and may serve to support them redesign the course or teaching interventions. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.
