The 1st impactful shift
Scientists know more about the brain than ever before.
Advancements in research have resulted in scientists knowing more about the brain than ever before.
Three core concepts being applied to eLearning to drive retention
Spaced Repetition
Also known as interval reinforcement.
Retrieval Practices
The questioning format.
Contributes to long term retention.
Confidence-Based Assessment
Spacing
Long-term retention is improved as the spacing between repetitions increases.
Spaced Repetition
Exposing employees to ideas 3 times over 30 days, versus 1 time over 30 days.

The Rise of Gamification
What is this “game” stuff?
Gamification Game-based Learning
Simulation Learning
The use of gaming elements integrated into a training program aligned with corporate goals to promote change in behavior.
The use of a game to teach knowledge, skills & abilities to learners using a self-contained space.
A realistic, controlled-risk environment where learners can practice specific behaviors & experience impacts of their decisions.
Gamification is using game-based mechanics,
aesthetics and game thinking to engage people, motivate action, promote learning and solve problems.
What is this “game” stuff?
Gamification uses elements of the game, but is not the game in-and-of itself.
What is this “game” stuff?
