Gamification Embodied: Beyond Points and Prizes with Dr. Karl Kapp

In this MAGICademy episode, we had a robust and expansive exploration of modern gamification principles with international expert Dr. Karl Kapp, who challenges conventional understanding of game-based learning. Moving far beyond simplistic point systems and digital badges, Dr. Kapp reveals how gamification taps into fundamental aspects of game design and human psychology to create transformative experiences. The conversation delves into the neuroscience of embodied learning, the power of "action first" approaches, and how fantasy environments unlock creativity and problem-solving capabilities.
