Gamification vs Game based Learning: What’s the Difference?
Фильм және анимация
There seems to be a little bit of confusion over the difference between gamification and game based learning. Well, the confusion stops here!
Gamification:
Gamification is the use of game mechanics in non-gaming scenarios to improve engagement by encouraging participation. These game mechanics include points, badges and leaderboards which are used to make unengaging systems even more interactive.
Game Based Learning:
Game based learning is an approach to learning that utilizes full games (not just their mechanics) to hammer home designated learning objectives. This covers a number of applications including the use of custom-designed games to reinforce a particular concept.
Juliette also discusses Series Games. These are games that have been designed for loftier purposes other than just entertainment.

Great content! I’m a UX Designer and I find the topic very helpful! I would love to hear more about gamification !!
I saw in some articles that even people who are explaining what serious games and game-based learning are, confuse them or use interchangeably.

So what you saying exactly the distinction dont matter. ..?
Thanks for the fantastic explanation Juliette. Totally new to this field so I have a few quick questions: 1. Is gamification of educational content the cheapest and easiest to implement since we already have educational content and we present it in an environment with rewards, leaderboards, badges etc? 2. Game based learning is maybe the most expensive and difficult to implement because we need to coordinate with game developers, pay them to modify an existing game to highlight some aspect that we're trying to teach (climate change, economics, history, peace & cooperation)? 3. Are serious games also super expensive and least likely to succeed? Are there any successful examples of a serious game ever? Here we build a game from scratch with the express purpose of teaching some lessons and I am guessing it would be close to impossible to make the game fun and interesting much like it is close to impossible to make a movie about accounting that is both genuinely educational while also being riveting?

Really good questions, Anshu
Hi Juliette and the Growth Engineering Team. Is there a ROUGH ballpark estimate you can give for the various types of gamification, game-based, and serious games type of costs that might be involved? I understand the variability could be huge but I'm curious as to possibly the range. Thanks so much for your great videos!
Love you and your great explanation 😍
How do I get involved with Growth Engineering? I'm an educational psychologist and board game enthusiast. I'd love to bridge these two parts of my life to help my struggling students find enjoyment in learning.
Clearest explanation ever! Thank you!
Very clear explanations! Thanks
Great Julie 😍 But is there is a colored written comparison schedule, that can summarize what you have explained, thanks a lot 🌸
Very useful

Thanks a lot
Do you think there is a way that we can use the worlds gaming addiction and take that addiction and apply it to levelling up our real life instead of our in game characters? I'm currently in the process of making a video on "how to gamify your life" and would love to chat. Btw, great video!
can you list out the app that talks about game based learning, Like Minecraft you just explained, would be very helpfull. Thank you please.
Thanks for the explanation.

Hi, I am a researcher in Birmingham, and I prepared a project based on game-based learning to increase disadvantaged students' math and science. I really need your opinions about how I can do effective teaching activities in math and science. Can we chat by email or if you have time to do a zoom call, please? If you help me out with the projects, I will be appreciated it? Looking forward to hearing from you. All the best
Ok.
