Game Mechanics Resource

Working my way through the Nebulas recordings from this past weekend's conference, I'm thrilled to see a track on writing and gaming. Well, maybe less of a "track" and more of a "here, have a few different panels on this topic."

The first panel was moderated by Jonathan Cassie, who does gamified learning. This is a thing I've been working towards for what feels like forever. It's partly how I justify the time I put into gaming (the other part is "learning to record and edit stuff," which, to be fair, I need to really work on improving a lot).

His website links out to something called GameLevelLearn.com which has this great resource called 51 Game Mechanics. This looks REALLY helpful in getting my head around what mechanics I need for this ... thing I'm trying to develop. Watching VintageBeef build Hermitcraft TCG and Tango Tek build Decked Out 2 has been instructive in a lot of ways, but they're building confrontation-based games. Decked Out is closer to what I'm working toward, in that it's PVE (note to self, an essay on "nursing as PVE" could be interesting at some point), but it's single-player. My goal is essentially collaborative PVE. That's my jam, though I prefer for it not to be actual combat. This resource has already given me so many ideas of game mechanics to consider.

I've also got a list of games to explore, both video and tabletop. I may, now that I have a better computer with decent RAM and ethernet capability, try streaming some of it to Twitch. If that continues to fail due to being in the outlying reaches of internet-land, then maybe some of it will become videos. That list, so far, includes

Stray Breath of the Wild Elden Ring Unpacking Mass Effect Dragon Age Grizzly Hills Journey

I think those are all video games. There are others I've flagged as tabletop or text-based, but there might be one or two in that list that are non-video game formats. I'm inclined to start with Stray, since that story is fairly contained, and also getting to be a cat sounds like fun (and looks like, from those I've watched).

Any thoughts on other games that would be beneficial to explore?

EDIT: You can almost definitely slot most apps into one of the above options.

School app? Slot in with work app.

Transportation app, whether plane, train, or car? Rewards or financial, depending on if they have a rewards program.

Media hosting? I'll admit I should have thought of something like Libby before I made the post, but substack or spotify will fall into social media.

wow duolingo sucks so bad these days

#it's so gamified and competitive and full of ads and if you run out of hearts you can't even do anything for hours #it's just mindless repetition and learning to recognise the shape of words without having to think about it #anyway i started learning russian on wlingua app and it's 100000 times better #no ads and it actually teaches you grammar alongside vocabulary #with spaced repetition and a logical structure of lessons #and also reading comprehension exercises and writing exercises #so you actually learn how to write the words unlike in duolingo?#well i suppose duolingo also has the option to type with a keyboard #but the bird app sucks in many other ways

Um Duolingo, what the hell is this:

As if it wasn't bad enough that the new pathway removed a bunch of my progress (AND takes ages to move onto the next topic so I'm not improving), and that they removed the wordlist so I can no longer keep on top of vocabulary, now I have no idea whether I'm meeting my own daily target or not?S

#Yet more nonsense #PLEASE stop messing with it PLEASE #Stop gamifying it! I do not need to be give little quests and combo bonus and god knows what else #I just want you to provide some basic translation sentences is that so fucking hard #It's harder to supplement with other forms of learning as well #How am I supposed to improve when your stupid pathway has been teaching me the same 4 words & grammar lesson for two months #How am I supposed to practise and learn new vocabulary when a) there isn't a list any more #And b) there's barely enoug new content each day to make it worthwhile #I don't want to play linguistic candy crush I want to learn a language #I don't want little trophies and the opportunity to buy more gems or whatever #Also why are there almost no translation exercises any more- proper ones?#I keep getting given a word bank to choose from with very few options to type out my own instead #It makes it way too easy and I'm not learning anythin just clicking on the words available

incredible to be an Adult capable of casting so much aspersion on the topic of the youtube polyglot

#i had such a fascinating talk with my friend about the issues with language learning and MAINTENANCE as by nature a profoundly time #consuming repetitive activity that in many cases will not make you any money #in a gamified ultra fast world #and i think that's the case with so many of these guys and the push to speak as many languages as possible and how they have to make a #career off interesting videos and whatnot #it's really really hard to gamify genuine proficience #but it's also WILD how they pass off a2's as being fluent in something

I'm progressing quite slowly through the course I'm aware but I think it is for the best because it lets me deeply absorb what I'm learning - every section that I've maxed out I DO know very well

I have a system for progressing through duolingo wherein I try to leave a few sections one lesson away from levelling up. When you level up you get an XP boost x2 for 15 minutes so I will start out longer practices by triggering the boost and then completing other lessons until the boost wears off. In doing so I get other sections closer to levelling up so that they will be ready for future boosts & every so often I do one of the legendary levels which are on top of maxing out a section. When you complete a legendary level correctly you can get 40XP whereas a normal level is 20XP so if you complete a legendary level with the boost you get 80XP!!

Anyway all of this is to say that's why my course looks the way it does & this is a nice way to keep the course interesting. It would be very annoying to do 5 levels of one sections all at once, so I stagger the completion of sections across different levels

#you gamify language learning and give it to an autistic person now look what happened #btw i have infinite lives because i tricked the system not because i give them money <3 #hack duo! tell him you're in a class! he'll stop showing you ads and give you infinite lives for free!

my prof just explained on the syllabus that he’s included more points in the class than we needed to pass, so we could skip up like?? 20 small assignments/quizzes/participation!! and still get a very high grade!!

the idea was that we could focus on assignments that played to our strengths - only do the participation stuff if we like to talk out loud - only do the quizzes/readings if we want to do the class remotely - only do online discussions if we like to talk and share opinions but struggle with anxiety in class ect.

and that’s cool enough but then he pulled up DnD character sheets with drawings he’d done of these hypothetical student player classes and how our various accessibility needs could be gamified to ‘max out’ different aspects of the class to get high grades and like!!!!!

hell yeah!!!! let’s treat accessibility in higher education not just as a necessity but as the fun, engaging, and creative aspect of learning that it is!!! I love this!!

EDIT: For proper credit or further questions about his system please find my professor on twitter @/kurtishanlon

#his drawings were so cute too and they had titles like ‘silent warrior’ ‘voice of the people’ ect waaaa im so #excited for this class #he also promised to wear a mask and asked us to do the same my mannnn #double shot

Microlearning: Designing It Right the First Time | MaxLearn

In today's fast-paced work environment, traditional training methods often fall short of meeting the immediate learning needs of employees. Microlearning Platform, which involves delivering content in small, focused bursts, has emerged as an effective solution. However, the success of microlearning hinges on getting the design right from the start. The MaxLearn blog post, "Microlearning: Design Right the First Time," offers valuable insights into creating effective microlearning content that engages learners and meets organizational goals.

Understanding Microlearning

Microlearning is the process of breaking down complex information into concise, easily digestible modules. These modules typically focus on a single learning objective and can be delivered in various formats, including videos, infographics, quizzes, and interactive scenarios. The key advantage of microlearning is that it fits seamlessly into the busy schedules of employees, allowing them to learn on the go and apply new knowledge immediately.

Steps to Effective Microlearning Design

Identify Clear Learning Objectives

The foundation of any effective training program is a clear understanding of what you want to achieve. Start by defining specific, measurable learning objectives. What skills or knowledge should learners acquire by the end of the module? Clear objectives help in designing focused content that meets the intended outcomes without overwhelming learners with unnecessary information.

Know Your Audience

Understanding your audience is crucial in designing engaging microlearning application content. Consider factors such as the learners' current knowledge level, job roles, and learning preferences. Tailoring the content to meet the specific needs and preferences of your audience increases the relevance and effectiveness of the training.

Create Bite-Sized, Focused Content

Microlearning thrives on brevity and focus. Each module should address a single concept or skill and should be brief enough to be completed in a few minutes. Avoid cramming too much information into one module. Instead, break down complex topics into a series of short, related modules. This approach not only enhances understanding but also aids in better retention and recall.

Use Varied Formats

Diverse formats keep learners engaged and cater to different learning styles. Combine videos, infographics, text, and interactive elements to create a rich learning experience. For instance, a short video can introduce a concept, followed by an infographic summarizing key points, and a quiz to reinforce learning. Interactivity, such as drag-and-drop activities or simulations, can further enhance engagement and understanding.

Incorporate Real-World Scenarios

Applying knowledge to real-world situations is a powerful way to reinforce learning. Incorporate scenarios and examples that are relevant to the learners' roles and challenges. This contextual approach not only makes the content more relatable but also helps learners see the practical application of what they are learning.

Include Assessments and Feedback

Assessments are an integral part of the learning process. Include quizzes, polls, or short exercises at the end of each module to evaluate learners' understanding. Providing immediate feedback helps learners identify areas for improvement and reinforces correct knowledge. Additionally, assessments can give insights into the effectiveness of the content and highlight areas that may need revision.

Ensure Mobile Accessibility

In today's mobile-centric world, ensuring that Microlearning Tools content is accessible on various devices is essential. Design your modules to be mobile-friendly, allowing learners to access training materials anytime, anywhere. This flexibility increases the chances of learners engaging with the content in their own time and at their own pace.

Best Practices for Sustainable Design

Iterative Development: Adopt an iterative approach to content development. Start with a basic version, gather feedback, and make necessary improvements. This process ensures that the content remains relevant and effective over time.

Continuous Improvement: Regularly update your microlearning modules to reflect new information, technologies, or changes in organizational goals. Continuous improvement keeps the content fresh and ensures that it remains aligned with learners' needs.

Engagement and Motivation: Use gamification elements, such as points, badges, and leaderboards, to enhance engagement and motivation. Recognizing and rewarding learners' progress fosters a positive learning culture and encourages continued participation.

Conclusion

Microlearning Authoring Tools right the first time is essential for its success. By focusing on clear objectives, understanding your audience, creating concise and engaging content, and incorporating assessments and real-world scenarios, you can create effective microlearning modules that meet organizational goals and enhance employee performance. Embracing these best practices will ensure that your microlearning initiatives are not only impactful but also sustainable in the long run.

Gamification for Growth: Turning Customer Engagement into a Fun and Rewarding Experience

Remember that childhood feeling of pure joy when you finally beat a challenging level in your favorite video game, or the thrill of climbing the leaderboard in a mobile app? That's the power of play in action. Games have a captivating ability to motivate, engage, and keep us coming back for more. This very same power is now being harnessed by businesses through the art of gamification.

Gamification is the strategic application of game mechanics and principles in non-game contexts. In simpler terms, it's about incorporating elements of games - points, badges, levels, challenges - into everyday experiences to make them more fun, engaging, and ultimately, more rewarding. Businesses are increasingly recognizing the potential of gamification as a powerful tool to transform customer engagement and drive growth.

So, what makes gamification so effective? The answer lies in our inherent psychological drives. Gamified experiences tap into both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Completing tasks in a gamified system can be inherently satisfying, providing a sense of accomplishment and mastery. But gamification also leverages extrinsic motivators, like points, badges, and leaderboards, to encourage participation and desired behaviors.

The desire for achievement is a powerful motivator. Gamification fuels this desire by offering users a clear path to success through progressive levels and challenges. Earning points and badges provides tangible recognition of progress, fostering a sense of pride and accomplishment. For example, a fitness app that awards badges for achieving workout goals not only motivates users to exercise but also celebrates their achievements.

Healthy competition is another powerful motivator that gamification effectively utilizes. Leaderboards pit users against each other in a friendly competition, encouraging them to strive for better performance. This competitive spirit can significantly boost user engagement and achievement. Imagine a language learning app that displays a leaderboard showcasing users with the most completed lessons. This playful competition can motivate users to learn more and climb the ranks.

Beyond individual achievement, gamification can also foster a sense of community and shared goals. Gamified experiences often connect users through collaborative challenges, team competitions, and virtual communities. This fosters a sense of belonging and encourages users to support and learn from each other.

Gamification in Action: Real-World Examples

Let's take a look at some real-world examples of successful gamification in action:

Loyalty programs: Many businesses have gamified their loyalty programs by awarding points for purchases, offering badges for reaching milestones, and unlocking exclusive rewards for high-tier members. This system incentivizes repeat purchases and builds customer loyalty.

Fitness Apps: Fitness apps heavily leverage gamification mechanics. They award users points for completing workouts, offer badges for achieving fitness goals, and create virtual communities where users can compete in challenges or motivate each other.

Educational Platforms: Educational platforms for kids and adults alike are incorporating gamification elements to make learning more engaging. Points, badges, and progress bars keep users motivated, while interactive games and challenges transform learning from a chore into a fun and rewarding experience.

Creating Your Gamified Experience: A Practical Guide

So, how can you leverage gamification for your business? Here's an orderly approach to help you get going:

Define Your Goals: The first step is to identify your specific objectives for gamification. Do you want to increase user engagement, drive product adoption, collect valuable user data, or achieve a combination of these goals? Your gamification strategy will be guided by a well-defined aim.

Know Your Audience: It's critical to comprehend who your target audience is. What are their motivations, needs, and preferred game mechanics? Tailor your gamification strategy to resonate with their interests and ensure a seamless user experience.

Choose the Right Mechanics: Not all game mechanics are created equal. Select appropriate elements that integrate well with your existing platform or program. Consider using points, badges, levels, leaderboards, virtual rewards, or challenges depending on your goals and audience.

Ensure Clear Rules and Rewards: Gamification thrives on clarity. Clearly define the rules of engagement, outline the scoring system, and showcase the rewards users can earn. Make sure the rewards are meaningful and incentivize the desired user behavior.

Monitor and Evaluate: Don't just put it in and forget it! Actively monitor the performance of your gamified experience. Track user engagement, analyze data on which mechanics are most effective, and be prepared to adjust and adapt your strategy based on the results.

Conclusion

Gamification offers a powerful way to transform customer engagement from a passive experience into a fun and rewarding journey. By incorporating game mechanics and fostering a sense of play, businesses can motivate users, build loyalty, and ultimately
