Here are some questions to consider about our current means of conducting elearning or even mlearning and our current level of interaction with computers. Can we have more natural interactions and exchanges of information? Let’s think about whether or not its possible to replace education with automation.

Salen and Zimmerman (2004) identify a model that presents four modes of interactivity or levels of engagement that a person may have within an interactive system such as a game. Mode 1: Cognitive interactivity or interpretative participation.

When examined that way, one major advantage that gamification has over many traditionally designed e-learning courses and classroom lectures is the high level of interactivity, the expectation of a difficult challenge and the process of continual feedback.

Stories are not technology bound, feedback is not technology bound and neither is challenge, autonomy or even social interactions. Technology can enable, enhance and energize those activities (as well as stifle, detract and stagnate). So we should not think of technology as a necessary pre-requisite for gamification only an enabler.

Instead, you need to design the interactions, storyline, feedback and levels in a manner that reflect the goal of the serious game. So a serious game must be designed with interactivity in mind. Create opportunities for the players to be interactive with the content of the game and with each other.
