March 2024
What is it about games that we find so attractive? Is it the captivating visuals, the thrill of a quest, or the sheer fantasy world we escape into? And how can we do just that to further learning outcomes in our work??
Gamification has been a buzzword in the L&D industry for a while, and for good reasons. In this newsletter we unpack gamification in learning, and give you some great resources to start with. I hope this will help you raise a few tough questions - Is gamification of learning always desirable?? Is it an all-or-none approach or can we pick and choose? Does 'fun' always support learning, or can it be a distraction too?
Speaking of fun, our 2024 Demo Reel is out! Don’t miss watching this extravaganza and let me know what you think!
Next month, we will tackle another important topic - knowledge checks, evaluations, and assessments in eLearning.
Cheers!

As we took a closer look at Gamification this month, we unpacked some basic concepts around our understanding of the “Power of Play”. We explored the diverse facets of interactive digital experiences, ranging from traditional video games to simulations, game-based learning, and gamification. Each aspect offers unique approaches to engagement and learning, bridging the gap between entertainment and education in innovative ways.? Join us as we explore these basics in a series of posts:?
Learning from the Gamemaster
We had the privilege of hosting Karl Kapp for an internal session at Artha Learning Inc., following our team's exploration of his book - The Gamification of Learning and Instruction. Karl's emphasis on leveraging human curiosity and problem-solving in educational design resonated with us deeply, as we continue to integrate these principles into our projects.
