A Gamification Workshop

On this fine Saturday morning, we drove to Taman Tun to the NeoOne Centre for Accelerated Learning. I had previously booked a spot in a workshop entitled “Facilitating Change via Gamification“.

The workshop was organised by the Malaysian Association of Facilitators.

The event focused to introducing gamification to the various industries in the professional world and I had the opportunity to describe my work in the field of education.

Besides that, we played a number of board games, namely Blokus and Decrypto. By learning the rules, the participants were able to express how the game, and the process of gamification, would be able to help in their own fields of work.

Perhaps someday I would be able to cooperate with this group of facilitators to further introduce role-playing games as training tools.
