We’ve Come A Long Way
"A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on a cold iron.“
~Horace Mann
What is Gamification?
“Gamification is the process of using game thinking and game mechanics to solve problems
and engage users.”

Gamification
• Teacher goes from “sage on the stage” to “guide on the side”

Why Gamification?
“People often say motivation doesn’t last. Neither does bathing—that’s why
we recommend it daily.” – Zig Ziglar
Dr Wayne Holmes, Zondle’s head of Education, became convinced of
the pedagogical benefits of gamification while conducting
research for his PhD in Education at Oxford University.
