Description

In this episode, we talk to the experts to see if gamification is a lifesaver or just a shiny bit of fun. Joining hosts Graeme and Luke (remember him?) are Game Developer Adam and Learning Developer Rob to dissect how game mechanics actually drive mastery. Is it a bespoke simulation or just points for clicking? We’re hunting for the line between genuine engagement and trivialization. Strap in as we decide what parts of "learning through play" deserve to stay.
