How to Concentrate with Gamification

How can we concentrate while studying?

I’ll assume that you like games. I mean, who doesn’t? When you hear the sound of leveling up or the experience sound from killing mobs, you feel a sense of accomplishment. After all, you made it into the leaderboard.
Imagine if life is just like a game.
When you read books, each page you read will grant you an xp+1 award. You carefully read the whole book to level up and fight the next boss: math quiz.
When a teacher gives you an assignment, you get a quest+1 notification.
Quest
Complete the math questions on pages 12–20.
Reward:
Xp+5, gold+2 , teacher’s impression +1
The above scenarios have occurred in our daily lives. But the addition of instant feedback, awards like xp and gold, will make us more willing to do something.
So now, you opened your textbook about biology. You finished reading the first chapter. The system immediately gave you a xp+5 award, giving you more reasons to continue reading the textbook.
To make this gamified life come true, you can simply use a notebook or use your phone’s note app.
On the first page, write down your character name, level, attributes, and experience.
On the second page, you can add your goal. An example goal would be: “Get all As”. Then underneath your goal, add the approximate level that will help you reach your goal.
On the third page, you can add the bosses that you might encounter, such as “math quiz boss” and the date.
On the fourth page and onwards, you label the top as Quest. Then write the date as the header. The tasks you need to do would be turned into each quest. You can weight how much xp the quest will give depending on how willing you are to do it.

Gamification in Application !

How Do You Gamify An App? To implement gamification in your app, you need to start with the design elements, and then proceed with the gamification workflow. The design elements are typically as follows: Badges.  These are a visual representation of users’ achievements, which indicate their performance within the app. For example, some fitness trackers introduce badges based on the number of steps that the user has walked throughout the use of the fitness app. Levels.  These are the parts of the game world. With each level, the complexity of the game increases, challenging the user to get further. Performance charts.  These graphs show how the player performed in comparison with their previous results and track their individual records. Points.  These are basic rewards that the user gets for their accomplishments as they progress within the game.   Scoreboards.  These are lists with player rankings that help to define who performs best in a certain activity. Unlike performance charts t

What to do during Personal Downfall?

  The need for backward engineering . I think I am accurate in saying that very few people, myself included, who are trying to create serious games for wellness think like this – i.e., like a game designer – about the process of gamification. From what I can tell, game designers think very deeply about the experience they want the game to promote, and then they work through the pragmatics of the game play that will facilitate this experience. This backward engineering from the point of view of the aesthetic/experiential goal to the pragmatics of the game is the opposite of what psychologists do when they think about gamification. Instead, we have parallel streams of development in which (a) we know that our “game” (read scientific protocol) is truly boring, and (b) we have to somehow decrease the snore factor. We think: “Hm, here is my very rigid experimental protocol/computerized intervention. I must overlay this protocol with some cute little animated guys, perhaps with a fun back-st

Best Study Method for Online Learning

1. Spaced learning To thoroughly understand what is learned, there are two important elements to consider. One is time. And the other is the application of repetition.  This can be achieved with   spaced learning , which is why it’s considered one of the best methods for combating the learning curve. Spaced learning helps learners manage what learned information is retained, enabling them to   reshape the forgetting curve . In turn, spaced learning benefits organizations as it supports the retention of skills and increased productivity in the long-term.  So, what exactly is spaced learning? Well, it’s a learning methodology where learners are presented with material they have to learn in a timed session, with a short break provided after they’ve completed it. Spaced learning strengthens memory retention because the learner studies the information, and periodically returns to review it in order to retain the knowledge.  The learner also practices retrieving the learned information using
