Increasing user awareness in various information and communication technology (ICT) activities is one of the most challenging tasks for organizations. One popular way to engage users in various domains is gamification, which is the use of game elements and digital game design techniques in non-game applications. By using game elements, applications become more attractive and provide benefits such as increased user activity and sociability, quality, and productivity of actions. Gamification is introduced in various stages of the software development lifecycle starting with the first phase of eliciting requirements to the final phases of testing and evaluation of the system to be. In parallel, the introduction of game elements in non-games raises a number of security and privacy issues. This book presents innovative research efforts and technical solutions related to gamification and improving user engagement in all stages of the development process.
Gamification and Industry 4.0
Gamification and Industry 4.0 are two concepts that each in their own right have sparked attention. Gamification as a way to use game elements in non-game activities, and Industry 4.0 as a way to describe how the interconnected digital transformation of operational technologies are changing manufacturing in the 21st Century. Gamification now offers an opportunity to enhance the productivity of manufacturing and improve quality of work life in the process. Gamification and Industry 4.0 looks at how the transformative shift of production and manufacturing opens up for gamified experiences in the work place. What the industry requires are deeper kinds of gamification, comprehending the knowledge of industrial production, computer applications, game design, learning, and motivational psychology. In order to achieve this, this book offers interdisciplinary expertise from such fields as psychology, management, software engineering, information science, game studies, and industrial production and innovation. The concept of Industry 4.0 and different types of gamifications are discussed in relation to motivation and learning. The book also examines cybersecurity of gamified systems and the potential risks any changes made to digital devices and industrial control systems may cause. This unique book will be of value to researchers, academics and upper-level students across various fields, but in particular, management and organization studies, production and manufacturing as well as technology and innovation management.
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.
