A Presentation on Gamification of Learning by Be Learning.
In recent years there has been a huge drive to harness the power of digital gaming in learning. It is a huge subject with games taking many forms and delivered in many ways, from the PC to the mobile, the gameboy to the Kinnect. They have been applied to aid the development of subject knowledge, subject specific skills to learning collaborative skills such as problem solving and team work. In many cases we are already using ‘gaming’ in learning, whether it be board games, quizzes or like one of our recent customer service programs where the facilitator led day was designed as a game with the integration of gaming principles.
