Even with the integration of emerging technologies in classrooms of the Indian education system, learning outcomes have been quite challenging. This study fills this gap in learning outcomes assessment by following: a) What challenges do students face in a typical postgraduate classroom from a teacher’s and systems perspective, and b) what strategies do educational entities employ to address the assessment of learning outcomes? The research under the current study has been supported by the university project called faculty research program: A learning environment within the class of executive program for management students considered for model design, based on a few independent variables (IDV or latent) such as student attendance, task influence, academic performance, knowledge retention, and a dependent variable (DV or construct) i.e. expected learning outcome. Data was collected from a small sample size of 120 management graduates; firstly, to assess reliability, validity (convergent and divergent), and extracted variances measured in constructs; secondly, to measure direct and indirect significance and predictive relevance, a mediating effect of gamification on expected learning outcomes, including the moderating impact of student attendance, and task orientation on DV. The study concludes that academic performance and knowledge retention show high importance. Summarily, student attendance and tasks show less importance. In line with different studies that have assessed the effect of gamification on students with learning problems in postgraduate programs, it is also recommended to focus on peer-to-peer cooperation, motivation, and timely task completion, and maintain regular attendance for knowledge retention for their inclusive learning.
