Gamification?
“The process of using game thinking and game mechanics to solve problems and engage users.”
- Gabe Zichermann

In Learning Terms, “Gamifying Means…
Turning the class content and the way students learn into a game with a rewards system, quests,
experience levels, and healthy competition…”
http://www.mrdaley.com/wordpress/2011/07/27/education-levels-up-a-newbs-guide-to-gamifying-your-classroom/
Believe me!
Game Mechanics?
Constructs of rules and feedback loops intended to produce enjoyable gameplay.

Seven Tips to Gamify…
1. Gamify grading with levels besides alphabets or percentages.
2. Award students with badges for completed tasks.
3. Integrate educational video games into your curriculum.
4. Stir up a little competition.
5. Implement a class-wide rewards system to encourage top students to help weaker students.
6. Gamify homework to inspire more effort.
7. Use social media tools to gamify social interaction and provide continuous feedback.
