I'm sooooo hyped about this! I'm going to be giving my first presentation on a topic, and "gamification" was selected! I didn't even know what it was until I walked out of a meeting just 20 minutes ago...and then I found this video! I'm more excited about it now that I've seen this video! Soooo many ideas swirling in my head! I need a nap!

[@TheLnDAcademy]

According to science, a nap might do wonders for knowledge retention. So go ahead 😴 let the Zzz’s rip! 🤩

I'm glad I stumbled upon the video and the channel. Thank you for creating these super insightful videos.

[@TheLnDAcademy]

You’re so welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting! 🥰

[@ashleymelendez7109]

I love this! My question is what do you do with people who eye roll and refuse to really participate?

[@TheLnDAcademy]

Oh, the eye rollers! 😅 One thing I always do is to never use the word ‘game’. I usually use the word ‘activity’. It just frames the conversation differently and more constructively. Another thing is to always allow people to opt out and be observers. Usually someone who sits things out once comes around - the ‘fear of missing out’ kicks into gear 😉

[@jorgearenillas4]

Awesome! What software would you recommend to gamify a course?

[@TheLnDAcademy]

We believe most modern ID softwares have the capability to introduce simple gamification elements. But we’ve also seen examples of something as simple as a Word document or PowerPoint presentation used just as successfully as some of the more sophisticated tools out there.

[@jorgearenillas4]

Thanks

[@evlynrenjith821]

@@TheLnDAcademy Can you create a video on how to create gamified contents in those software?

[@TheLnDAcademy]

@evlynrenjith821 sure, we’ll put it in the schedule for the next few months.

enrolled to your udemy class for ID Great course!

[@TheLnDAcademy]

Yay! See you there! 🤗

[@joseluisd.arguelles6066]

Great course! Although there are challenges when communicating with SME's. Do you have a workaround with that?

[@TheLnDAcademy]

It depends on the challenges. What issues are you running into?

[@joseluisd.arguelles6066]

@@TheLnDAcademy apologies for the late response. like when they don't answer your question of what could be gap of learning a certain tool.

[@TheLnDAcademy]

That’s a common problem. When stakeholders don’t respond, there is usually a reason for it. It’s advisable to look for ways (usually informal) to figure out what is the reason and then address that. If the case is that they don’t know how to breach a gap or what the specific problem to address is, then assure them you’re the right person to talk to, as you can help formulate the challenge and then propose alternative solutions for fixing it. They need to perceive you as a valuable partner, an experienced practitioner, who can help solve their pain point. Even if sometimes that means not knowing what they are. As to how you can do all of that - it depends on the channels of communication you have at your disposal (email, chat, phone, face-to-face, etc.), the level of trust between you and their personality style (you can look into such options as DiSC or the MBTI for more clarity on this topic). Hope this helps. If you have other questions, please let us know.

[@SvitlanaPishchulina]

Hi Irina, thank you for releasing that topic. Actually, I have some teams who would like to have the element of a game during the training (platform functionality). Would you suggest any free apps or tools ( or not free) which will allow me to gamify some part of training? I have been using only Kahoot for now. Thank you!

[@TheLnDAcademy]

There are quite a few tools out there. It really depends on what you need. Some tools that I have used are Paddle and NearPod. But you can also use Miro or Mural. Again, it really depends on what you’re trying to achieve.

[@SvitlanaPishchulina]

@@TheLnDAcademy Thank you, I will check those I didn't use before :) Basically the boring instruction how to work with platform should be transformed into the engaging training :)

[@TheLnDAcademy]

In that case, you don’t need a platform, you need Accelerated Learning by Dave Meyer. Check it out!
