Gamification im Unterricht - nicht nur Spielerei!

Gamification takes your teaching to a new level. Motivate your students with challenging game approaches.

"We choose to play because the game is more attractive than reality." With this undeniable argument, the author Christian Wettke introduces you to the principle of gamification. Think about it for a moment. You can surely relate: If only students would spend the same amount of time on their homework as they do on video games or smartphones!

So why not integrate motivating game principles into everyday subject teaching to emotionally engage young people and cater to their individual learning levels – media literacy included? Gamification is more than just repeatedly playing educational games. Instead, adventures and avatars, quizzes and quests become the framework that encompasses your lessons.

The author provides insights into the technical knowledge, various approaches to the concept, and three suitable game platforms and systems in this book. Screenshots and best-practice examples support the foundation for your gamified teaching.
