    I use them with 3-5 #espechat

    A6) I have seen this termed used a lot....can you define "Gamification" for me or give me an example? #espechat

    A6) I would say I've had a modified version of gamification. Used Stickers for Ss when they could demo understanding. #espechat

    A6 part 2: Gamification is built in assessment, growth mindset, and a great engagement getter for non-participants. #espechat
  • smsandino Sep 12 @ 8:47 PM EDT
    A6 I've used the aspects of levels and leveling up, I can't say I've used it in its entirety #espechat
  • MrRoosPE Sep 12 @ 8:47 PM EDT
    Yes. Maybe 120 of 430 last year. They get it. Just be clear and think about those students when you write the questions. #espechat

    A6: gamification is using the best parts of video games in a real life activity like education or consumerism for engagement. #espechat
