Professor Cliff Lampe Talks About Gamification in Academia (Video)

Posted by Roblimo on from the slogging-through-the-trenches-of-higher-education dept.

Professor Lampe is using gamification in his 200-student lecture classes to make them more interesting. He says big-class lectures can often be as boring for the professor as they are for the students. A little bit of game-type action can spice things up and make classes more interesting. Near the end of the video he points out that gamification is becoming popular for employee training in private enterprise, so why not use the concept in universities and other educational institutions?
