We hope you were able to attend our presentation Need Training Spice? Games are the Hot Sauce to Engage Remote Learners! by our own Stephen Baer
Is your training content complicated? Do your employees complain about being overwhelmed with training or even worse, not show up? Then it’s time to ditch the PowerPoints and training manuals and start infusing gamification into your training. Games add spice to just about any training material and make it more digestible and much more fun. When employed correctly, games can be highly effective in engaging your learners, keeping their attention, and motivating them to perform. Feeling like a “deer in headlights” when it comes to starting a game-based learning strategy? Don’t worry, it’s much easier than you think.
In this session, we learned:
- Why games are the spice you need to make your training more fun and engaging, virtually (and eventually back in the classroom)
- How to use Bloom’s Taxonomy as a roadmap to ensure your game-based learning strategy is effective
- How to select the “just-right” game to ensure you are training to your desired learning outcomes
- How to use rich data and analytics to see learning gaps and measure the ROI of your training

Session title: Get Your Game On: How to Use Games to Virtually Connect with your Remote Learners
Description:
On April 9th, 2020, Microsoft Teams announced that they hit a new record high of 2.7 billion minutes spent in meeting in 1 day! That’s a lot of meetings. We’re all on conference calls or virtual meetings most of the day. Let’s be real, it can get a little tiresome. It’s hard to stay focused, your attention wanders, boredom sets in. Adding games to your virtual meetings ensures active participants! You got to be in it to win it. But how do you do this? It’s much easier than you think.
In this webinar, we learned:
- The benefits of game-based training and how to implement a gamified strategy
