Summary

Ruben Hamilius, founder of Business Games Ireland, shares why he believes game-based learning can offer a 'safe, immersive environment' for training staff.

Experiential-learning games then complement the classroom by allowing adults to reinforce learning by doing.

How do game-based learning approaches typically work? What do they involve?

The most important factor is to determine what the learning objectives of the game are.

Challenges can be solved by creativity or negotiation - or both, or neither! Every game is designed to be fun and educational, but these are always a function of the learning process.

Will game-based learning fit into the future of work, do you think?

For anyone starting out incorporating game-based learning into the training curriculum, I would recommend keeping one foot in the known and one foot in the unknown.
