Stop teaching. Start Learning with Educational Games

Janet is a student in a top university in Singapore. I had arranged to meet her to chat about her experience with classroom learning. We agreed on a cafe at Bugis called Mellower Coffee. One that is popular with students, she says.

 

Great! A new hangout.

 

I arrived and saw her at a corner. Plugged into earphones, she was engrossed in some videos. Youtube it seems. But this video was different. It looked like the video of a professor teaching in a class. But instead of being in a classroom, she is in a very nice cafe and having a nice coffee.

Gamification may sound to some like educational games, because it uses gaming techniques to help to teach students new concepts. If one can connect with people effectively through games, can this make learning easier?

Please don't think that learning-by-doing is restricted to videogames! Anything where you can explore cause-and-effect, from videogames to simulations to board games to roleplay to social interaction to tinkertoys to interactive art... they all have this power.

We can get people to understand the world. To understand each other. To understand themselves.

Son interesantes las propuestas que se nos dan, únicamente veo el problema que esta la mayoría en ingles y por tanto algunos y a los más pequeños en este caso se les dificultaría, por otro lado si se manejara con algún traductor serán herramientas útiles.

Hi I’m David. I started E-learning Examples to curate the best multimedia learning examples.

Along the way, I discovered some of the best examples of multimedia learning were coming from visual and multimedia journalism.

There’s actually a lot of overlap between the industries. However, multimedia journalism examples are rarely hidden behind corporate firewalls, so I felt adding them would provide even more inspiration and learning opportunities for those designing and developing corporate e-learning.
