Practices and Implementation of Gamification in Higher Education
Practices and Implementation of Gamification in Higher Education is a comprehensive book that explores the integration of gamification in tertiary education as an innovative approach to teaching and learning. By leveraging the mechanics of games, educators are able to achieve enhanced results, foster critical thinking, and promote positive behavior among students. This book compiles a collection of practical lesson proposals from experienced educators at the university level, providing detailed instructions and necessary materials for implementing gamification in the classroom. By presenting a diverse range of examples across various fields of higher education, the book illustrates the effectiveness of gamification in engaging students and catering to their specific needs. Whether it is fostering motivation, nurturing commitment, or encouraging excellence, the book highlights the positive impact of gamification on student learning outcomes. Ideal for researchers, department chairs, university professors, and lead course developers, this book appeals to those invested in innovative teaching methodologies and seeking to implement them successfully. It also caters to graduate studies programs in higher education, teaching and instruction, humanities, English, and foreign languages.
Gamification in Education and Business
This book is dedicated to applied gamification in the areas of education and business, while also covering pitfalls to avoid and guidelines needed to successfully implement for a project. Using different theoretical backgrounds from various areas including behavioral economics, game theory, and complex adaptive systems, the contributors aim to help readers avoid common problems and difficulties that they could face with poor implementation. The book’s contributors are scholars and academics from the many areas where the key theory of gamification typically comes from. Ultimately, the book’s goal is to help bring together the theories from these different disciplines to the field of practice in education and business. The book is divided into four parts: Theory, Education, Business, and Use Cases. Part I provides a foundation on the theory of gamification and offers insight into some of the outstanding questions that have yet to be addressed. In Part II, the application and value that gamification can bring within the education sector is examined. The book then changes focus in Part III to spotlight the use of gamification within business environments. The topics also cover educational aspects like improved learning outcomes, motivation, and learning retention at the workplace. Finally Part IV concentrates on the applications and use of gamification through a series of case studies and key elements that are used in real situations to drive real results.
Teaching and Learning in a Digital World
This book gathers the Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning (ICL2017), held in Budapest, Hungary on 27–29 September 2017. The authors are currently witnessing a significant transformation in the development of education. The impact of globalisation on all areas of human life, the exponential acceleration of technological developments and global markets, and the need for flexibility and agility are essential and challenging elements of this process that have to be tackled in general, but especially in engineering education. To face these current real-world challenges, higher education has to find innovative ways to quickly respond to them. Since its inception in 1998, this conference has been devoted to new approaches in learning with a focus on collaborative learning. Today the ICL conferences offer a forum for exchange concerning relevant trends and research results, and for sharing practical experience gained while developing and testing elements of new technologies and pedagogies in the learning context.
