This eBook covers the 10 most common mistakes – and how to fix them.
How gamification mistakes can derail L&D success

That said, repeated mistakes can potentially distract students and prevent them from achieving the desired results.

That’s where this guide comes in to take your program to the next level by avoiding gamification implementation and design mistakes.
About this eBook
Is your gamification strategy text-heavy? Do you use the intrinsic motivation of students? This eBook can help you avoid gamification mistakes and get your program back on track. Here’s a quick glimpse of what you’ll find inside:
- If your focus is only on fun, choose a game mode that effectively supports your performance goals.
- Add feedback: Effective feedback allows you to take advantage of the moment of need.
- When your game structure is flawed, keep asking students, “Now what?”
- Your rewards or prizes aren’t motivating enough: make sure everyone gets rewards – one top prize won’t work.
