What did you learn today? I think this is one of the most important questions we can ask ourselves each day.
By staying curious and continuing to learn each day, anything is possible.
GamiCon 2018 is here!
Where will you be next week? I'll be at GamiCon 2018, the only fully gamified conference and the only one dedicated entirely to gamification of learning. I will be running a session on Sunday, October 7, 2018 entitled 4 Cs to an A+ Learning Experience. It is not too late to register and join us at this event co-located with Training Magazine OLC2018 in Chicago, October 6-8, 2018. For more details go to https://gamicon.us/.
40 Gameful Days of Summer
Over the summer I completed a personal challenge of sharing gameful design tips on live, unedited video for 40 consecutive workdays. You can catch them on my IGTV channel or on YouTube in the 40 Gameful Days of Summer playlist.
