Your lesson, should you choose to accept it, is to find ways to incorporate gamification and game-based learning into your teaching practice. The special agent assigned to help you with this task is Batsheva Frankel of the Overthrowing Education podcast.
In this episode we discuss:
1️⃣ The differences between ‘game-based learning’ and ‘gamification’ and examples of each
2️⃣ How game-based-learning and gamification can open students’ creativity and increase engagement and enthusiasm for a subject
3️⃣ Making changes to education when we see room for improvement and the value of Twitter and podcasts to see what’s possible
❗Then Batsheva gets a taste of her own medicine when she plays her podcast’s signature 5-minute game show… as a contestant!
