We believe games are fun with a purpose. Games create a cognitive engagement between the learner and the topic in a motivating environment. Games celebrate your topic and reward individual and group achievement. Games bring fun and energy into a buoyant learning zone, but with the focus on learning.
Games provide feedback to the learner. They want and need feedback on their performance. Games give them immediate feedback on the quality of their input - their successes and their errors. With the appropriate corrective feedback, this can become an invaluable learning opportunity.
FACT: Games Improve Retention
Game dynamics (gamification) motivate students, increasing their effort and developing their knowledge, thanks to practice.
