- 5. What is a game? The answer may not be so simple. An interactive, goal-oriented activity, with active agents to play against, in which players (including active agents) can interfere with each other. 1.A piece of entertainment is a plaything if it is interactive. Movies and books are cited as examples of non-interactive entertainment. •If no goals are associated with a plaything, it is a toy. (Note:(a) a toy can become a game element if the player makes up rules, and (b) The Sims and SimCity are toys, not games.) If it has goals, a plaything is a challenge. •If a challenge has no "active agent against whom you compete," it is a puzzle; if there is one, it is a conflict. (Note: this is a subjective test. Video games with noticeably algorithmic artificial intelligence can be played as puzzles; these include th e patterns used to evade ghosts in Pac-Man.) •Finally, if the player can only outperform the opponent, but not atta ck them to interfere with their performance, the conflict is a competition. (Competitions include racing and figure skating.) However, if attacks are allowed, then the conflict qualifies as a game. -Chris Crawford founder of the Game Developer Conference
- 6. What is a game? The answer may not be so simple. “A form of to rules sport, esp. a competitive one played according play or and decided by skill, strength, or luck.” -Google Dictionary “A game is a problem-solving activity, approached with a playful attitude.” -The Art of Game Design by Schell “A system in which players engage in an artificial conflict, defined by rules, that results in a quantifiable outcome.” -Rules of Play: Game Design Fundamentals by Salen and Zimmerman “A system in which players engage in an abstractresults in a defined by rules, interactivity, and feedback, that reaction.” challenge, quantifiable outcome often eliciting an emotional -A Theory of Fun by Koster
- 7. What is a game? The answer may not be so simple. System - A set of interconnected elements. Players - A person interacting with game content or other players Challenge - Something that is demanding; a test of one’s ability Rules - The principles and regulation governing conduct, action, or procedure Feedback - A reaction or response to a particular process or activity Quantifiable Outcome - Having a concrete “win” state

- So... Let’s get started.
- Name, title, twitter So, one way that I could describe myself is that on a WOW scale, my career attributes (not character attributes), are... Level 76 Game Designer Level 43 Project Manager Level 36 Instructional Designer Does anybody know what I mean when I say a WOW scale? In WOW, the maximum character level is an 85. It started out at 60, and as in real life, what defines the elite players keeps increasing. Here’s my “Career” Avatar!
- Let’s first discuss games, and what a game is. Then answer may not be as straightforward as you think.
- This is a very complete definition of a game, but I think it goes a bit too far, because it excludes a lot of activities that most people consider games. For example, trivia games, Angry Birds, Tetris, etc.
- So, let’s take a look at more inclusive definitions. I find it interesting that by some of these definitions, there’s a lot of eLearning that I’ve seen that could possibly qualify as a game, or at the very least, perhaps you can see why gamification is such a good fit for eLearning.
- These are the elements of these definitions that I think are most important to consider when applying them to eLearning.
- I also want to mention this, mostly because when people think of games, they have an expectation that they’ll be fun. What I find interesting about this, is that game designers recognize that the basis of fun, is learning.
- So, I think it’s only natural that as an extension of learning being fun, that we discuss how we can use games as a learning tool. I also want to point out this product (Ammo Storage Compatibility), that as part of this game, we built in performance support tools that are not only used in the game, but can be easily accessed in the field for reference.
- For the purpose of this presentation, and because we’re discussing eLearning, I am mostly referring to tools that are used in building video games.
- *”Has anybody here ever used a game in their eLearning material? Let’s see a raise of hands.” (If hands are raised…) *”Of those that have their hands raised, did you see a measurable educational benefit to using games in your eLearning material?”
- If you do decide to make a full-blown learning-game, you should be aware that you’ll need to make some changes to your development process. Most notably, you should use a game designer on your team, or at the very least, an instructional designer that knows A LOT about video games.
- So, how do we do this? How do we engage learners? I believe the answer boils down to the exact same reason why video games are so popular… engaging e-learning and engaging video games reward the brain.
- So, let’s first talk about Rewards. What is a reward?
- In order for rewards to have meaning they must induce emotion from the learner. Now, this obviously does not mean that anything that evokes emotion in a game or in eLearning material is rewarding, even if it is positive. So, let’s break this down a little further to find out exactly must be encompassed in a reward to induce engagement.
- Something that people will have AMBITION and DRIVE to obtain.
- There needs to be PLEASURE or ENJOYMENT in attaining it, if it will be truly rewarding to somebody.
- So, is it even possible to want something, but not like it? Or, like something, but not want it? I think the answer to this can be intensely personal and depend on a person’s circumstances. How about a job? A person may want their job, but not really like it. Or, perhaps they may want additional job training, but not like the training material. In these instances, a person won’t find their job or training material rewarding. How about liking something, but not wanting it? This one’s a little more difficult.
- I hope you can see by this example, that rewards are personal and circumstantial.
- Build Personas
- Gamification-a combination of game design techniques, Aesthetics, Game thinking, and MOST importantly, Game Mechanics
- This table shows some of the game mechanics that we use in gaming, and along the top here, you can see some of the ways that these mechanics reward the brain. Banana BREAD Analogy
- If you’re going to reward a learner, let them know it. Set very specific goals and objectives for the learner. Set a broad goal for the user, and break it into several narrow, precise objectives. This may seem obvious, but break large concepts into smaller and smaller tasks.
- If you’re going to reward a learner, let them know it. Set very specific goals and objectives for the learner. Set a broad goal for the user, and break it into several narrow, precise objectives. This may seem obvious, but break large concepts into smaller and smaller tasks.
- So, if we were to map out how this might look, this is how your eLearning could look. Cognitive Load BUT... this isn’t how the goal structure of most games would be illustrated.
- Most games use what’s called a hub system to accommodate non-linear flow.
- In this illustration, each of the lines represents a choice that a user has in navigating a game, or your eLearning. For the purpose of this illustration, I left in all of the lines, or choices, but in application, any of these lines could be removed, as long as each node is connected in some way. Also, any of these lines could have direction, so the user can only move through each choice in one direction.
- When it comes to the rules of a game, there are the rules of the game that define how the game is intended to be played, AND the rules of the game that define how the game is allowed to be played.
- This diagram shows optimal flow through an interactive product. What this illustrates, is that as challenge and skill rises, to stay in this flow channel between anxiety and boredom, it’s best to vary the amount of challenge throughout your product, to give your user a chance to practice their skills.
- When you break goals up into multiple objectives, allow learners to complete these objectives in parallel. As long as you carefully manage the number of simultaneous goals and objectives that you are asking the user to complete, learners will be more engaged if they can choose the order in which they complete tasks. I’d suggest keeping this to less than five parallel objectives - seven at the most. As you increase the number of simultaneous objectives, you can create extraneous cognitive load on the learner, and this can actually become a distraction. Another word of caution, from a development standpoint, developing a non-linear, or branching, E-Learning products, is much more difficult. But, when learners are given choices, these types of products are much more engaging.
- This suggestion is used to great affect in games to enhance engagement. If it would seem natural to put a timer on the goals and objectives in your E-Learning material so they need to be completed in a timely manner, I encourage you to do so. A word of warning however, there is some 508 compliance issues with this. If a timer is used, the user must be alerted, and given sufficient time to indicate if more time is required. The main point here is that by giving the learner a sense of urgency, you will stimulate their brain by increasing dopamine, which subsequently creates a “learning window” that we’ll talk about later.
- If learners get confused, it makes them feel stupid. Make people feel clever and smart. Rapid, frequent clear feedback - linking consequences to actions Provide explanatory feedback for correct and incorrect answers—Feedback Principle

- e.g. on a leaderboard, don’t tell people they were 98th of 100. Tell them “Congratulation, you made it to the leaderboard!”
- 100 small rewards are better than one big reward
- Fixed Interval – E.g. the sunflowers produce sun pick-ups every 24 seconds in PvZ. Variable Interval – the marigolds in PvZ produce a coin, either gold or silver, on average every 24 seconds, at variable time periods. Fixed Ratio - in PvZ every fifth level is a bonus level that unlocks a mini-game upon completion. Variable Ratio - Slot machine that gives one of nine reward types each time it’s used
- Is jeopardy really jeopardy without double jeopardy or final jeopardy?
- Simply put, when a user is doing poorly, the system will adjust to an easier difficulty level. And, when a user is doing well, it increases the difficulty level.

- Firstly - Evidence. A behavior must be measured, captured, and data stored.
- Secondly - Relevance. The information must be relayed to the individual, not in the raw-data form in which it was captured but in a context that makes it emotionally relevant.
- Thirdly - Consequence. The information must illuminate one or more paths ahead.
- Fourthly - Action. There must be a clear moment when the individual can recalibrate a behavior, make a choice, and act.
- Then that action is measured, and the feedback loop can run once more, every action stimulating new behaviors that inch the individual closer to their goals.
- If you’re going to reward a learner, let them know it. Set very specific goals and objectives for the learner. Set a broad goal for the user, and break it into several narrow, precise objectives. This may seem obvious, but break large concepts into smaller and smaller tasks.

By interacting with a character in a virtual world, students become more engaged in the subject matter, helping them learn more effectively.”
