Gamification involves very specific game elements used across the course
-
A1: Gamification is when the entire course/unit is set within a game setting where game based is usually one specific standard.
-
Q3. What does gamification look like in your instructional setting?
-
Classcraft is a site that can be used for gamification
-
A3: It looks like a ghost because I haven't incorporated gamification yet. Was hoping to in the fall, but the course was cancelled
-
Quests, leveling up, team and individual tasks, some random rewards and challenges, progressive difficulty - gamification
-
A3 Trying to figure out how to share gamification with the Ts in my district. Want something new for them and their Ss.

-
Saw an awesome prezi on using Google to gamify your classroom. So, don't need fancy programs. Can be done with just creativity.
-
-
Q4. What areas of should allow freedom, and in what ways should there be rules?

A3: It looks like playing to check for S understanding; playing Floristic Relay to teach ecological succession.

Multiplayer Classroom is a great book. Classcraft gives a ready-made structure. Many students are familiar with Minecraft already
-
Q5. How can you begin gamifying in your instructional setting?
-
A3: I do game based learning with but not gamification.
-
A3: It looks like anything that targets intended skills for content comprehension.
-
If it's a single standalone game,it's likely game-based lrng.If it's part of a system, it's more likely gamification
-
My students always start at 0. I thought everyone did that.
-
A4: E.g., use of PG13 nicknames in , but use of S ID so I can tell who needs review and/or support.
-
A5: Asking ur Ss what they would like to try. Deliver review in a couple different game ways, let Ss choose.
-
the research that is coming out on play is fascinating. NPR did a TED radio hour on play this week.
-
Thanks for the tip! I will check that out!
