Gamification
Application of typical game elements, such as points, medals, and leaderboards, in non-gaming contexts
Increase engagement and motivate students
Finding a balance. So that playful elements - do not distract from the educational content
- make the context more accessible and enjoyable for students
Various age groups and skill levels
Eeasily integrated into a larger lesson plan
Making games
Stimulate creativity, problem-solving and collaboration among students
Engage students in the process of creating and designing games
For teaching programming, graphic design, storytelling and critical thinking
Also include:
- games that involve solving puzzles
- games like Lego or Dash that allow the creation of objects or elements for different games
Entertainment games
Not designed with a primary educational goal
Implemented to support learning through their engagement power
- Games as a reward for completing tasks or achieving goals
- Games that present challenges or puzzles to solve, use critical thinking
- Games with a strong narrative component that can be linked to the contents of the discipline
- Teamwork or competition games used to teach social skills such as communication, collaboration and negotiation
Toughtfully integrated to enhance learning, rather than distracting or replacing more traditional teaching methods
Always a clear educational objective
Educational games
Designed specifically for educational purposes
Teaching concepts in math, science, languages, and other subjects interactively
It is important to choose games that are appropriate for the age and skill level of students and that are aligned with learning objectives
Provide feedback and reflections after the game to consolidate learning
My thoughts
How do you feel about the use of gaming in the school world?
