Leveling Up Learner Identity and Engagement with Game-Like Learning

Too often, learners construct barriers to their own learning with problematic self-identifications like "I'm bad at math" or "I'm a bad writer" causing them to disengage. Game-based activities and game-like learning can help learners shed these identities and embrace new ones as active players in the game of learning. Join us to explore the underlying principles of game-based, game-like, and gamified learning, apply these design principles to the classroom, and play a rousing round of Fear Pong.
