7. Gamification applies game-like elements
to non-game situations

8. Some stats….
Transforming a subway
staircase into a set of piano
keys-each step producing a
musical note increased its
use 66 percent
26 % of people playing
games are over fifty, which
is an increase from a mere
9 % in 1999
When player reaches the
maximum prize level,
dopamine is released in the
same amount, regardless of
the nature of the prize
55 % of people would work
for a company that offered
games as a way to increase
productivity
56 % showed no difference
between games and
conventional instruction;
32 % favoured games;
5 % favoured conventional

9. “What do points mean?”
By incorporating gamification elements such as Badges,
Points, Leaderboard, we are providing incentives to our
learners to want to achieve and participate more!
