Practical Gamification
Gamification is a trending concept both in higher ed. and in the corporate sector, but many implementations simply game veneers without incorporating the key aspects of what makes a game compelling. Designing good gamification is about more than adding a narrative, or points, badges, & leaderboards. Good gamification creates a paradigm shift. It’s about making fundamental changes to the way work is assigned and assessed, which in turn creates a fundamental shift in the way learners engage with your content. Our award-winning gamification designs are based on sound pedagogy that comes from decades of experience. We’ve been doing gamification of learning since long before it was called gamification. -
