Adding Daily Quests like in Duolingo can make Khan Academy more fun, motivational and even addicting. The plan: there are 3 different kinds of daily quests: easy, medium and difficult. Every day, 3 random easy, medium and difficult quests are selected out of many. Each of the three quests' objective length is based on the user's time spent learning yesterday. Each quest grants energy points based on its difficulty. Adding prizes like avatars and badges for completing a specific amount of daily quests can also increase fun, motivation and addictiveness. E.g., (Easy) Earn 1K energy points, (Medium) Watch 3 whole videos, (Difficult) Score at least Familiar in 5 courses. Here is a screenshot of daily quests on Duolingo:

Oppose I use Duolingo. I am an adult. I do not find the Daily Quests useful or motivational at all. They are too much focused on quantity.
- KA is self‐paced, there’s no need to beg for daily use. Some people are “slow” readers/learners, and that’s OK.
- KA is non‐profit, there is no economic need to maximize user interaction.
- KA is meant to be usable by minors, children who may have not yet learned a healthy use of digital devices. I really don’t think something like this will promote any “healthy” computer use.

I absolutely agree. I just felt like Khan Academy was a little bland compared to other educational apps after I earned all the avatars and a lot of badges. Maybe exploiting just a little more FOMO could motivate me to study more. I already started meditating and quit video games and social media but I feel like I could study a little more than I already do. You don't have to do anything about it though, it's just my problem, not yours.
