Welcome one and all to the wrap up of the ASTD international conference and expo. Why hasn’t ASTD figured out how to do things right. Once again, ASTD dropped the ball. Apparently there must be a huge demand for scalping ASTD badges or hood winking ASTD for access into their show. Leapfactor. Map on the app.

The series is written by Karl Kapp, professor of instructional technology and internationally known author of two books on gamification , both co-authored by ASTD. The first thing is to keep in mind is that gamification is not a technology-driven methodology. Instead, think of gamification as a design methodology.
