PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A1 Games require things like Competition, Challenge, Cause and Consequence, Rules and Mechanics. Without they're not games. #MinecraftEDU

mr_isaacs Oct 18 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@lynnetelfer Hey Lynne!!! #minecraftedu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A1 Gamification happens in games with elements like Badges, Points, Levels, XP, but these are not the game. They're Overlays. #MinecraftEDU

sokanomx Oct 18 @ 8:16 PM EDT

I use gamification through class dojo to inspire my students to engage in lessons and do extra work at home. Points for prizes #MinecraftEDU

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A1: Gamification is applying game like elements to learning, such as badges, XP, Avatars etc. Turning classroom into an RPG #MinecraftEDU

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:17 PM EDT

@lynnetelfer Welcome Lynne! So glad to have you join tonight! Lynne's another researcher of GBL in Minecraft. #MinecraftEDU

A4: Since #MinecraftEDU lends itself so well to teaching the Cs of Education, give Ss XP or Badges for exemplifying them in Minecraft

@PBJellyGames @joakleyiii Yes to Ss :) #minecraftedu

PBJellyGames - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@johnmillerEDU Ahhh THANK YOU JOHN! Let me OP here! in my humble opinion that is not Gamification, that is a true game! #MinecraftEDU

MGrundel - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:46 PM EDT

@johnmillerEDU I do similar, when Ss come up w/ out of box, creative/original solutions to problems, they earn in class bonus #MinecraftEDU

TheOwl3 Oct 18 @ 8:47 PM EDT

.@irvspanish #minecraftedu Just started awarding badges in schoology. Could create minecraft ones for there.

BBTNB Oct 18 @ 8:47 PM EDT

Good idea. Maybe the kids and I can co-construct a physical badge system. Thanks @irvspanish #MinecraftEDU https://t.co/OrDOJlQl5m

irvspanish Oct 18 @ 8:45 PM EDT

In the meantime create some of your own based on achievements! Physical badges are a big hit even for HS age Ss!… https://t.co/vYTsVlRO0z

wrenchey Oct 18 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A4 you could do a meme generator to create additional badges #minecraftedu #MIEExpert

mr_isaacs Oct 18 @ 8:49 PM EDT

Go figure. I don't see Q4... argh #minecraftedu

irvspanish Oct 18 @ 8:49 PM EDT

lynnetelfer Oct 18 @ 8:50 PM EDT

Class time for me! Another great chat on #minecraftEDU. Yes about to use gamification :D Thank you!

pfm2001_ Oct 18 @ 8:50 PM EDT

@PBJellyGames student does the GBL, but student can be distracted #MinecraftEDU

mr_isaacs Oct 18 @ 8:51 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @iRezzly love #3DgameLab great way to roll out a project...was sorry to miss Haskell this weekend @#minefaire. #minecraftEDU

mr_isaacs Oct 18 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A5: Generally speaking, PBL (Problem based) is about posing the problem and having students empowered in creative prob solving #minecraftedu

A5 - In #PBL it is strongly encouraged that we use Universal Design 4 Learning #UDL. In #GBL I don't see this needed as much. #MinecraftEDU

mr_isaacs Oct 18 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A5: in #gbl main role of educator is providing game that drives the learning, student learns through experiential play #minecraftedu
