About this practical guide

In this guide we'll use real-world examples of how game-based techniques can energise online learning programmes and make a positive, measurable impact. Some techniques (such as immersive 3D virtual environments) require substantial levels of investment, while others can be produced quickly and cost-effectively with just a little imagination, planning and game-based thinking. If you're interested in gamifying the provision of learning in your organisation, this guide will give you some useful food for thought.

This guide covers:

  • Reasons for using game-based learning
  • Story, characters and goals
  • Virtual role-play
  • Avatars and reward systems
  • Leaderboards, competition and team games
  • Exploring virtual environments
  • Mobile games
  • Take-a-break games
