Using Gamification to Promote Student Engagement
Colleges and universities are competing for student enrollment now more than ever. The institutions that are best situated to attract students are those that can meet students where they are and engage them in courses and co-curricular activities. This session will explore how emerging gaming technologies are necessary for higher education to remain current and promote student engagement, which can promote student retention and progression as well as individual wellbeing through social networks. Join us to review the existing evidence on student engagement and find opportunities to use gamification to promote student success in a fun and rewarding way.
