In this episode we kick off our new monthy theme of gamification!  We connect with two experts in gamification and game-based learning from around the state of Washington, Tammie Schrader and Al Gonzalez.  Both have presented on gamification topics at various edtech conferences and currently lead statewide training courses on gamification and game-based learning in WA.  We discuss tips for starting out with gamification and GBL and some of our experiences with both in the classroom.
