Duolingo utilizes gamification elements, such as earning points, leveling up, and receiving virtual rewards, to motivate users and make the learning experience more engaging. It also includes features like streaks, where users are encouraged to maintain a consistent learning habit, and a social component that allows users to compete with friends and share their achievements.
