Gamification as Design Thinking

Hung, A. C. Y. (2018). Gamification as Design Thinking. International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, 30(3), 1812–9129.

By reflecting-in-action,  the practitioner is able to gain metacognitive awareness  and perceive his/her intuitions and biases, test  hypotheses, and take on new perspectives. The  approach of having students learn by designing their  own games combines design thinking and game-based  learning (Kafai, 1995, 2006; Li, Lemieuz,  Vandermeiden, & Nathoo, 2013). Design thinking also  supports new forms of literacies brought on by new  media technologies as well as game-based learning.

It is likely that the effects of gamification cannot  easily be measured satisfactorily through surveys of  motivation, engagement, attendance, or grades because  there are too many variables that could affect how students  respond. Critics of gamification argue that it over

simplifies complex problems (Bogost, 2015; Robertson,  2010). However, both gamification and design thinking  are approaches to problem-solving. With design thinking,  gamification may be used in more meaningful ways  because design thinking offers a different lens through  which to conceptualize the problem.

Analog Video Digitization

Reconsidering Technical Labor in Information Institutions: The Case of Analog Video Digitization

empirical study conducted by the author from 2015–2017 that used qualitative-interpretive methods to study the discursive and material practices of professional media preservationists as they worked to digitize analog video recordings in small-scale, high-quality (“artisanal”) digitization projects

p. 215 Furthermore, understanding technical work in li-braries can contribute to ongoing debates in information studies and the digital humanities on the relationship between “doing” and “signifying” in terms of scholarly production (Cecire 2011)

Digital Native Means Digitally Literate?

Think Digital Native Means Digitally Literate? Think Again.

students do have digital skills, but not necessarily the digital literacy they need to do their schoolwork.

There’s a difference in the way students use a device to scroll through YouTube videos versus understanding the information delivered in a lesson. The first is passive, and the other requires careful engagement.

n the International Literacy Association’s “What’s Hot in Literacy” report published in 2020, 49 percent of literacy professionals said they wanted more professional development on “using digital resources to support literacy instruction.” That surprised the researchers, who also reported that professionals were split over whether digital literacy was receiving the appropriate amount of attention: 26 percent felt it deserved less attention, while 25 percent felt it should get more.

Multimodal Learning Environments

Neuroscience research has also revealed that „significant increases in learning can be
accomplished through the informed use of visual and verbal multimodal learning‟ (Fadel, 2008, p. 12).

Multimodal learning environments allow instructional elements to be presented in more than one  sensory mode (visual, aural, written). In turn, materials that are presented in a variety of presentation  modes may lead learners to perceive that it is easier to learn and improve attention, thus leading to improved learning performance; in particular for lowerachieving students (Chen & Fu, 2003; Moreno & Mayer, 2007; Zywno 2003).

multimodal design, in which „information (is) presented in multiple modes such as visual and auditory‟ (Chen & Fu, 2003, p.350). The major benefit of which, as identified by Picciano (2009), is that it „allows students to experience learning in ways in which they are most comfortable, while challenging them to experience and learn in other ways as well‟ (p. 13). Consequently, students may become more selfdirected, interacting with the various elements housed in these environments.
