Summary
In the 21st year of the 21st century, with Covid-19 pandemic continuing to wreak havoc throughout the country, we have started observing the significant impact it is having on our students.
The thing is, this type of learning involves a student passively watching a teacher's lecture, practicing rote memorisation, and then taking a test.
If we want to keep the students actively engaged, especially during these stressful times, adoption of a new method of learning-a gamified learning - is a foregone conclusion.
Gamified learning has many forms and is still evolving.
IIT Mumbai came out with Project OSCAR. Here, a student is able to change a parameter or two in an experiment and observe the results instantly, on the computer screen.
Learning STEM online suddenly had a new meaning, new fun with the gamification.
Genius 3D learning from SARAS-3D Inc is now available in India which offers these and many more things.
Who had imagined that it will be a pandemic of this magnitude and duration which will trigger revolutionary developments in the field of education? It can be said that gamification in the learning process opens up new vistas with control in the hands of the ever-inquisitive students.
