The Gamification Academy is an initiative of BrandNewGame and seven founding players. We defined our purpose as follows: “Transform organizations and create perpetual progress by stimulating individual behavioral change that leads to actions that continuously contribute to the organizational - and personal - purpose.” How we do that? By providing game mechanics on the professional playground. We organize events and share information in the field of gamification, learning & development, change etc. The yearly Gamification Award is also an initiative of the Gamification Academy.

Hello to all 1.265 followers / members of this group! On a regular basis, we are receiving inquiries if we still organize the Gamification Workshop (including certification)... And we DO want to organize them, but it seems that planning a date for the event in order for people to be able to attend is the main issue to actually make it happen. So... If you feel like joining the next gamification workshop, please send us a DM or respond below this message so we can put you on a list and THEN we will plan a date democratically together ';-) https://lnkd.in/gYkjm8D3
If you haven't already, it might be valuable to follow this dude on YouTube for frequent and (hopefully) relevant explanations of game mechanics and practical examples of how serious games can change your business! https://lnkd.in/e5YiSE8z #gamification for #upsell #sales #branding #culture #agile #transformation #ai
Take a break from what you are doing right now, and breath a moment. While breathing: you can watch this video about the effect of 'cut scenes' in games and how they can assist your e-learning or learning journey to let knowledge sink in or share extra information in an informal way... https://lnkd.in/eXgz33kf #gamification
Don't take our word that gamification is a really effective... Just read scientific articles from intelligent people that did years of research... #gamification helps #meta cognition #smart https://lnkd.in/e9_3XqjB
What's on your journal the rest of this year? Halloween, Christmas? World Peace? Make sure, you make it count! Most adventure and role-playing games offer a journal where all your missions and assignments are clearly logged. It helps the players as a guide... You can always integrate that in your onboarding of new staff as well. Make it a short 'to do' list of whom they should meet and why. Hell - you could actually make an adventure game of your on-boarding... How? Send me a DM and let me help you. #gamification #onboarding #game https://lnkd.in/g7RSxM46
"So tell me, do you feel lucky...? Punk!" (Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry)... This epic movie quote always stuck with me. So how does luck work as a mechanics in game design? And when does it and when doesn't it? What are the pro's and con's...? Share your thoughts! #gamification https://lnkd.in/eY4gmFcE
A lot of e-learning these days is still nothing more than QAC: Questions Answers and Consequences... But real games are so addictive because they make players WORK and undertake actions in order to receive items (objects). When you start playing a game, you might have nothing more than just your body and the ability to move (walk up, down, left and right), potentially to press buttons or even jump. But in more advanced games, or after 'clearing' a room, you might find a book, a stick, or a sword to fight off enemies. Or a potion that will - temporarily - increase your jumping skills, speed, or other 'power ups'... So when I mention 'objects' as a mechanic - really try to interpret it in a way that it serves your goal as a game designer and apply it in a relevant way for the player, within the context or theme of your game. Now, how can you apply this in your e-learning...? Well... often you just can't... But imagine answering three questions right, and you receive a token that gives you extra time, or a hint you can use for harder questions...? Or imagine that you need a code to progress that you can only receive if you battle one of your colleagues? These are mechanics that are often not available in Scorm or other standard e-learning tools. But if you really want to make an impact, these are the mechanics that enrich your e-learning in a way that they make a lasting impression... So try considering a serious game company to build that part for you, I know of a gamified platform that actually enables you to do just that if you like.
