Episode Synopsis "Gamification 101: Definitions, Explanations, and Examples"
With students gaming so much at home, why on earth would you gamify your classroom? In this podcast listeners will hear the evolution from edutainment to gamification in education, as well as learn the difference between playing games and gamifying a classroom. Gamification gurus Karl Kapp and James Paul Gee's insights are discussed. Host Michelle Watrin also explains how teachers can take students' interest and know-how in gaming and apply their interest of being 'pleasantly frustrated' to translate that into success in the classroom.
