Come away with practical strategies that you can use in any class or grade level to make learning come alive! You will leave ready to turn your classroom into a gamified adventure!
Learning Outcome #1At the end of my session, participants will be able to explain what gamification is and how it applies to the educational setting. They will leave with a clear understanding of the concept and be able to adapt it to their classroom or educational environment.
Learning Outcome #2At the end of my session, participants will be able to layer story and game mechanics over content to create an immersive learning environment. I will demonstrate how I have layered story and game mechanics over my course content and empower participants to create a gamified experience in their educational setting.
