Gamification is the process of taking a learning experience and integrating game mechanics into it to motivate participation, engagement, and loyalty. Gamification takes the data-driven techniques that game designers use to engage players and applies them to non-game experiences to motivate actions that add value to your business.
In this path, you will learn the basics of applying gamification to your learning to increase engagements and achieve the restults that you want.
Game mechanics are the nuts and bolts of creating a gamified course. They can range from a narrative to points, leaderboard, and badges. While there is no comprehensive list of game mechanics it is important to know and understand the uses of the generally accepted game mechanics.
Now that you know what gamification is and what tools you need to gamify your learning, how do you bring it all together in a successful course? Research shows that 80% of gamified learning projects fail to meet their objectives. In this section, you will learn how to take the course that you are designing from a failure to success.
The realm of gamification is constantly growing and gaining acceptance quickly and one of the best things about this field is that everyone is willing to share their knowledge openly. One of my favorite quote about gamification comes from Monica Cornette " I have never met anyone in gamification who isn't nice."
