Class Review: 1 year, 3 months ago · ViewThat sounds interesting. I would like to see that video. I never thought of achievement points, in this case real-life points, changing someone's behavior. I would how you could impliment achievement points in real-life. Other than changing personalitys, what other affects could they have?

Class Review: 1 year, 3 months ago · Viewyeah I was wondering, are the terms you mentioned the first class: gamification and gamefulness commonly used jargon in the industry?
Gamification is very common jargon right now: check out the Gamification Google Tech talk
and Jane McGonigal on the principles of ”gameful” design at TED
Also, the Gamification summit: http://www.amiando.com/gamificationsummit.html
At the same time, it is worth noting that they are both recently invented terms that attempt to grasp at some current debates in the industry. Gamification has emerged mostly from outside of professional game design–it’s a term commonly used by people who are taking ideas from games to use elsewhere.
so i guess what my internship was about was gamification…weird…
are they trying to make gamification mean just one thing? or is this a term that can have a broad spectrum?Well, gamification emerged as a business term, a buzzword more than anything else. The question of what it should mean is still open to debate.

Class Review: 1 year, 3 months ago · ViewOne question I had from class was what is gamefullness exactly. I’m still a little puzzled on the topic.
We’ll be probing at that one all semester, so don’t be surprised if you aren’t happy with the definition yet. But, if you want to get a grasp on it from the term’s inventor, read: http://gameful.org/avantgame/what-is-gameful/
Thank you very much. I will give this a read.
