Gamification
Step 4: see a list of tools.
Gamification incorporates game-design elements into lessons and academic concepts. Gamified instruction typically allow students to select a challenge and then cycle through an attempt-fail-succeed cycle until the challenge is overcome. In each attempt-fail-succeed cycle, well-designed gamification provides students valuable experience needed to triumph over an obstacle and advance. Participants are typically rewarded for selecting more rigorous tests. Rewards can be something as simple as an online badge.
