Beyond Gamification: What Worked, What Didn't, and What's Next with Karl Kapp

#IDIODC Instructional Designers In Offices Drinking Coffee

Are you tired of hearing the term "gamification"? Do you even hear it that much any more? Was it just a trend that has finally passed?

These are all questions for the master of games for learning, Karl Kapp. He's a regular contributor to IDIODC and we want to know what happened... and what's next.

Dr. Kapp is well a well-known professor at Bloomsburg University. Many of his students have become names you recognize online and at L&D events. He's written books and is a popular LinkedIn learning instructor as well. If anyone knows about gamification and what's next, it's him.

We'll talk about a little history of gamification and why it seemed like a good idea at the time. But more importantly we'll cover the good that came from it, and what games for learning really should look like in the future.
