This research project outlines an enhanced version of the GEM, which is purposefully designed to boost the effectiveness and efficiency of the traditional method while enhancing the experiences of the facilitator and participants. The enhanced GEM leverages the Internet and digital media to reduce implementation costs, increase the reusability of assets, enable remote participation, and archive results from multiple GEM sessions for comparison. The web application, which encapsulates the enhanced GEM procedure, utilizes instructional videos to guide the process as well as gamification concepts such as avatars, progress bars, stages, and points to motivate participants.
