Gamification

Public Group active 5 months, 2 weeks ago

Pitch the task you think is worth gamifying. Consider a task you engage in that is productive but not engaging on rewarding. Examples include routines, like the toothbrushing example from Schell’s video, or process like getting a licence renewed at the MVA. Pick something small enough that you can feasibly make a plan for every stage and context.

    @Vengeance, you exist because we allow it… and you will die because we demand it.

    Thanks guys for your inputs. I see that my little concept has been expanded much further than I originally planned. @joyeux, your idea of becoming a members at the YMCA gym is excellent because of the system that they use to track people activities and such. I’ve never gone to any gym in my life so [...]

    General rules for Road Trippin’

    Here are the rules:

    Game is played out on Google Maps
    Mileage is logged in each day, these miles are akin to “rolling the dice” and put you somewhere on the map – on the way to the destination
    The miles will put you on a space that will either make you:
    - lose a turn (car accident!)
    - skip ahead (green light!)
    - or detour you somewhere else (detour ahead!)

    First player to reach the destination — wins!

  • Looks like most people posted those topics in the other forum so you might want to reply to jcage’s topic in the COSC forum with this reply, just so the professor sees it:

    You could extend this to offer further bonuses and discounts on their insurance rates if they take part in preventative activities. Quit smoking as confirmed by a doctor, get your annual checkups on time, donate blood, etc.

    Maybe you could also make each mountain a different challenge. For example, have Mt. Gore-tex be a 100 mile high climb with the reward of a discount on Gore-tex products. If you climb 100 miles, you not only get the discount but anyone that helps you get there gets a bonus too. When you’re done [...]

    Get sponsorship by healthy eating companies. “Instead of a soda, why not have some crystal lite?”

    You could get advertising from hair care products, but not sure if they’d like a point deduction when they’re used.

    Nice idea. Could you incorporate it with real life recycling services? Maybe if you get a certain score, you get recycle bucks which can be spent at participating second-hand stores or something. Trade in points for perks or discounts sponsored by the green industry.
