A recap of some key points from today's seminar about gamification...
By the way, could you tell I made myself laugh before speaking at the start of this recording? Can you imagine how much my arm hurt by the end of it? How many takes do you think I needed? #ALC708#LearnByDoing
A student just came across this blog and reminded me about its existence. They 'liked' it, so maybe other current students might find something valuable in it? Lots of inspirational stories in there, and none of them mine... https://t.co/QznKHiTIx4 #ALM101#ALM201#ALC708
ATTENTION FRIDAY BURWOOD STUDENTS!!
Your 10am seminar for #ALC708 will be held on Zoom for health reasons. Please see link in email and CloudDeakin announcement. Apologies for any inconvenience, and look forward to seeing you online!
I talk to students often about the serendipitous moments that occur when getting creative with digital content. Planning is crucial, but sometimes great things come from just doing. So don't wait too long when you're making media! 😊🐶 #ALM101#ALC708
Gamified Virtual Challenges: story-driven exercise, unlockable content, environmental causes, and The Lord of the Rings! What's not to love?? 🧙♂️
If your answer to the above question is 'the movies', you will be unfollowed, blocked, and reported. https://t.co/nEOXz3vCTG #ALC708
On gamification and learning: a quick video I made many years ago on my phone, where it was more difficult to judge background music volume. So let this be a double lesson to you... 😄 #ALC708
Some media-making advice from my 5 year-old self to all students...
If you fall over, get back up.
If you stumble, regain your footing.
If someone keeps filming, smile for the camera!!

@pboydwriting And no better take on the reach and impact of gamification too! My young niece and nephew are very keen on Reading Eggs... Thanks for sharing!
@pboydwriting Really outstanding engagement with the camera Paul! If you'll indulge some feedback (and while we're not too stressed about this til the final task - plus you'll likely find a different background), check out how you're covering up half the frame behind you - could be to yr left.
