The Nautilus Expedition – Charting the Depths of Gamification

The Nautilus is embarking on its most daring mission yet: uncovering the hidden knowledge of gamification buried deep beneath the waves. Scattered across the ocean floor are six lost artifacts, each containing valuable insights into designing engaging learning experiences.

Your crew must navigate through six stages of deep-sea exploration, working together to recover these lost artifacts and assemble a WebQuest that will serve as a guide for future explorers.

This journey will require collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving. Using the expedition tools provided—Google Sites, Forms, and Sheets—you will log discoveries, contribute findings, and track your progress as a team.

Your Objective

• Work in expedition teams to design a WebQuest focused on a key gamification topic.

• Use Google Sites to construct the WebQuest framework.

• Engage with Google Forms and Sheets to track mechanics, log exploration data, and collaborate.

• Apply game mechanics and storytelling to enhance the engagement of your WebQuest.

• Present your completed mission report (WebQuest) at the surface.
