Event Description

Are you looking for ways to enhance student engagement and motivation in your course? Gamification offers a powerful approach to revitalize your teaching. By incorporating game elements into your educational practice, you can transform existing activities or assessment into compelling learning experiences—whether in physical spaces or online environments. In this interactive session, you will discover how thoughtfully designed gamified components can enhance student learning while maintaining academic rigor. We’ll explore practical techniques for integrating game mechanics into your existing activities and assessments that align meaningfully with your course learning outcomes.

Course Design Studio sessions are designed to provide practical strategies for anyone involved in designing courses and learning experiences. They include a brief, high-level overview of the topic, step-by-step instructions on the specific tools mentioned, and dedicated time for both questions and hands-on, personalized support. Opportunities for one-on-one course design consultationare also available.
