What is Gamification?

According to Werbach and Hunter (2012), “it
is the use of game elements and game design

techniques in non-game contexts”

It means: Triggering intrinsic and extrinsic

motivation in students to develop their skills

through engaging activities with an

educational purpose.

How?

Let’s pretend you are
all teachers, the next
topic you will teach
will be adjectives.

Two choices:

1: Traditional way
using deductive

grammar.

2: Using one activity
that is usually a game,
but this time has an

education goal.

Example:

Traditional: students studying the

rules and memorizing adjectives and

the way they are used.

Gamification: students accessing to an interactive

website in which they describe different people by

completing a puzzle or word search getting points every

time they do well.

What is the objective of
using gamification?

• The main objective of Gamification is to increase

participation

and

motivate

users

using

game

elements

such

as

points,

leaderboards,

and

immediate feedback among other things.

• It is based in the success of the gaming industry,

social media, and decades of research in human

psychology. Basically, any task, assignment, process

or theoretical context can be gamified.

What game elements can I use in a class?

• Points,

badges,

leaderboards,

progress

bars/progression charts, performance graphs, quests,

levels, avatars, social elements, and rewards. All these

elements have different purposes and can be adapted

to basically any work, business or education related

environment.

process and know that they are going to be rewarded

in some way for their efforts, then they stop becoming

passive observers and turn into active participants.

eLearning

fun

and

interactive.

informative, but fun and exciting too. This creates the

feeling

ofimmersion,
