    Learning through play is both natural and effective.  It is the way we learn much of what we know.  And yet, opportunities to learn through play are rare in most business settings.  Interactive games fill this need and provide an alternate way for learners to master key objectives and new skills.

    At the end of this presentation, you should be able to:

    • Identify key instructional methodologies and attributes that optimize learning when creating interactive games
    • Determine when a game is a good fit for your learning programs and how to ensure it matches the objectives of the learning content
    • Identify a step-by-step approach to designing and developing games
    • Identify a list of potential gaming ideas that you can repurpose for your own game design.
