Summary
Gamification and game-based learning have been popular for the last decade and will remain in trend in the future.
There are essential differences between gamification and game-based learning that you may want to know.
The more exciting a plot is, the faster and deeper a learner will immerse in learning.
In gamification unlike in a game-based approach, a learner is just a user on an e-learning app, website or LMS. In gamified products, there are no such roles.
In a game-based learning project, users learn while playing, driven by the desire to have fun.
In game-based learning products, rewards directly influence the completion of a game.
Giving a badge to an app user as a reward for learning seven days in a row is gamification.
