Gamification in the Learning Process. Gamification means integrating game mechanics and learning content together to retain and improve skills of a person using it. Millenials are inclined towards using a mobile device which gives support to gamification as an e-learning innovation. Open Education Resources (OER).
The primary trends identified by the team were: adaptive learning, open education resources (OER), gamification and game-based learning, MOOCs, LMS and interoperability, mobile devices, and design.
Gamification —borrowing the motivating principles from games and applying them to a non-game setting—can rewire and bolster social dynamics in the classroom when properly implemented. Here are some key insights we’ve gathered about the ways video games foster learning: 1. Visit Classcraft at ISTE Booth #970.
But gamification does not mean the learning is less rigorous; it is just different. Confusion about quality and actual rigor are added by the OER preferential language of both the federal government and the states. This is where the past is still holding us back.
market is the trend toward open and free educational resources, or OER. Similarly, the trend toward OER and greater competition among vendors is also expected to negatively impact the LMS market. One headwind specific to the U.S. Since the U.S.
OER meets iPads in this district. Believe it or not, writing is a natural fit for gamification techniques. Every new teacher should be able to answer these 7 questions. Teaching for the 21st century looks a lot different. Here’s what admins — and teachers — need to know for job interviews and beyond.
I touched on personal learning networks, mobile technologies, games and gamification, the use of social media in learning, the role of user generated content, the phenomenon of ubiquitous connection, and technological convergence.
Many quiet signs of OER. More talk of gamification, not so much about games. The Sydney-led BEST Network is an example of this, as is the very interesting Smart Sparrow (I hope to blog more about them later on). This might complement, but is different from data analytics. Not all the way, but watch this trend. Who was there?
The lesson I learned with Pokemon Go is not that gaming and gamification are essential to learning. LOOKING FORWARD I could go on and on with the trends that I have become excited about in 2016– coding , sketchnoting , Open Education Resources (OER) , and design thinking are others that come to mind. But these are just my opinions.
I hoped to move on from there to what I called “approaches”, ways of using tech that didn’t depend on a specific platform – i.e., gaming and gamification, blended learning, distance learning, MOOCs, mobile, and digital literacy. But participants were very, very engaged from the start.

You may remember Stanford History Education Group (SHEG) for its groundbreaking and utterly depressing report, Evaluating Information: The Cornerstone of Online Civic Reasoning. In the November 2016 Executive Summary , the researchers shared: When thousands of students respond to dozens of tasks there are endless variations.
To help achieve this vision, Mackintosh is setting up the OER University and is evangelistic in his elucidation of this concept. There is growing presence and force behind this vision, and as the OER movement gains traction and impetus, we should expect to see some changes in the way universities offer their programmes of study.
Some examples include augmented reality, virtual reality, open education resources (OER), adaptive tools, coding, drones/robotics, and gamification. With all the excitement and possibilities it is important to remember that pedagogy trumps technology if the goal is meaningful student learning.
Higher education is going through a massive transformation thanks to the adoption of new technologies like mobile learning , gamification and digital courseware. Open Educational Resources (OER) Products – OER course products are developed based on open resources and utilize instructional design and professional services.
I was also surprised to see so little development in gaming and gamification within education this past year. Lastly, I forecast continued incremental growth of open educational resources (OER) and open access in scholarly publication. We shouldn’t be surprised to see educational technology become increasingly political.
