Presentation:
Levelling Up Your Online Classroom with Gamification
Does gamifying your classroom work? How does you make it work? You've seen your students faces light up and engagement grow when you bring in your digital rewards, right? Imagine that level of engagement throughout your class as you bring in lessons that have been gamified. Allison talks about how to be successful in the classroom with students when gamifying, and finding success with parents who see the change in their child with digital learning games.
