From the Back Cover:

Keeping participants engaged is the cornerstone of any positive learning experience and it's no secret that games create engagement. As digital games and game-based interfaces continue to grow in popularity, it is essential that learning professionals incorporate gamification as part of their skill base.

The Gamification of Learning and Instruction Fieldbook offers professionals a step-by-step guide for implementing the concepts and techniques outlined in Karl M. Kapp's bestselling book The Gamification of Learning and Instruction. This down-to-earth resource is filled with illustrative examples, tips, tricks-of-the-trade, and worksheets that are designed to give learning professionals a hands-on way to put Kapp's winning ideas into practice.

Each chapter in the fieldbook contains information, activities, and ideas for creating your own immer- sive learning event, illustrative case studies, provocative questions to stimulate discussion, worksheets for designing an immersive learning experience, and a summary for review.
