61 — How can L&D use games in elearning?


Listen Later

Are games in elearning a powerful tool for engaging learners or a gimmick that turns them off? Maybe they're a bit of both?

This week on the GoodPractice Podcast, Emma Barrow from Yorkshire Building Society joins James, Ross G and Eoghan from the GoodPractice team to discuss elearning games.

If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can find Emma on Twitter @SavageNoodles, Ross @RossGarnerGP, James @JamesMcLuckie and Eoghan @EoghanScott.

You can also tweet @GoodPractice or @GoodpracticeAus.

The podcast Ross recommended, and where he got the definition of 'diurnal' from, was No Such Thing As A Fish: http://qi.com/podcast
