How can learning be done in a place other than a classroom, other than in an eLearning module, other than with a worksheet. It only lasts for a little while but mingling students with seasoned professionals has lead to many innovative course designs. We need to picture learning happening in unusual places in unusual formats.

So, consider you own elearning or classroom instruction, does it have any memorable characters to guide the learner? Could you create a character memorable enough to so that when a learner is considering a course of action or a certain behavior, he or she thinks…what would the character do?

The context of an online course or the context of a classroom is not authentic. May times in a classroom or in an elearning module, there are no consequences for wrong decisions or actions. In a course, the person “feels” removed from the content and acts as they think the instructor or material would like them to.

I sincerely hope people are spending more time on design.

Kapp: You’ve done so much pioneering and foundational work in the serious games industry, what do you think of the “gamification” trend—the idea of using game-elements in learning courses instead of creating an entire game?
