Boredom Is eLearning’s Worst Enemy And Gamification Its Solution
Do you know what is learning’s worst enemy? Boredom. If you don’t believe me, think about this: Have you ever zoned out in a meeting or a classroom? Most probably, you have. Do you remember what was being said in that meeting or class? Chances are you don’t. You know why? Because boredom makes you indifferent, it closes off your mind to external information and instead forces you to focus on irrelevant, non-constructive thoughts. If you are bored, you cannot learn.
