But they need to use those tools to show value, rather than showcase fun. This requires a mindset shift and a move from content to actions through game thinking. In this issue of TD at Work, Zsolt Olah delves into the definition of games and gamification. He also: · details considerations for building a game-based learning strategy that is engaging and effective · presents case studies of when to use game-based learning or gamification and when not to. · offers tips on how to keep learners—that is, players—in mind while building learning games.
