Long Description:
We will briefly discuss an introduction to gamification in the classroom, and will talk about how to include gamification elements within the constraints of university teaching. We will walk you through a process on how to gamify your classroom. We will share our experiences gamifying three different courses - a math course, an education course, and a biomedical engineering design course. You'll hear from some of our students via prerecorded video. We will discuss how gamification can provide access to STEM content for traditionally marginalized students.
