Gameful Pedagogy in Practice
Laura Shackelford (Anthropology)
Laura will describe gameful strategies she's added to her course including a nontraditional, additive grading system where students build up their grade from zero, assignment choice, and opportunities for practice and recovery within the learning environment. These pedagogical changes support learner autonomy, and allow students to take risks and practice resiliency in the face of classroom challenges.
