Is your training content complicated? Do your employees complain about being overwhelmed with training or even worse, not show up? Then it's time to ditch the PowerPoints and training manuals and start infusing gamification into your training. Games add spice to just about any training material and make it more digestible and much more fun. When employed correctly, games can be highly effective in engaging your learners, keeping their attention, and motivating them to perform. Feeling like a “deer in headlights” when it comes to starting a game-based learning strategy? Don't worry, it's much easier than you think.
In this session you'll learn the science behind games and why so many L&D professionals are using them to engage their teams. You'll learn about the benefits of games over traditional training methods. We'll discuss how to start building your game-based learning strategy by first considering a variety of desired skills and behavioral outcomes. We'll help channel your inner-Goldilocks and help you select the “just-right” game for your learning objectives. We'll dive head-first into Bloom's Taxonomy and discuss how this brilliant classification system can serve as a road map to creating a game-based learning strategy that will ensure maximum effectiveness. We'll discuss how games provide rich and actionable data that will help you clearly see learning gaps and measure the training effectiveness. Lastly, we'll discuss the difference between games and gamification and how you can level up from games and assessments to incentives and rewards. You'll leave this session with the knowledge and tools needed to start you off on an exciting game-based learning journey that will help your employees retain more knowledge and ultimately be more confident on the job.
