In today's rapidly evolving educational landscape, it's crucial to rethink traditional approaches to teaching mathematics. We often encounter math anxiety among students, hindering their engagement and learning outcomes. This anxiety stems from various factors, including fear of failure, perceived difficulty, and a lack of interest in the subject.

However, there's a powerful tool at our disposal: gamification. By integrating game elements into the learning process, we can create dynamic and immersive experiences that captivate students' attention, foster intrinsic motivation, and alleviate math anxiety.

This workshop aims to transform the way we teach math by guiding you through the process of gamifying your mathematics courses. From analyzing learning goals and understanding your audience to designing engaging experiences, we'll explore practical strategies and techniques to make math learning more enjoyable, engaging, inclusive and effective.

Great books on the topic

The "Gamification of Learning and Instruction Fieldbook" by Kapp, Blair and Mesch is definetly the best "how to" on applying gamification in a real life context, step-by-step.

Some of the books are also available free through your institutions.
