With the aim of promoting the participation of students, the center has chosen <strong>game-based learning<\/strong> courses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The decision of this North American university to implement <strong>gamification programs<\/strong> responds to the demands of <strong>new ways of learning<\/strong>. Game-based learning has long been knocking on the doors of training all around the world, not only in schools and universities, but also in companies and institutions for corporate training.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Heading this project at the University of Arizona is <a title=\"Tahnja Wilson @TahnjaWilson\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tahnjawilson\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Tahnja Wilson<\/a>, who says that the &#8220;interactive&#8221; properties of this training will be a great &#8220;complement&#8221; during the course. In these <strong>serious games,<\/strong> Arizona students will take various leadership roles &#8220;with increasing responsibility, to help a community to challenge environmental and sustainability issues.&#8221; Among the <strong>interactive features<\/strong> of these<strong> simulators <\/strong>are the possibility of downloading digital learning objects, taking notes and answering questions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This initiative will allow students to evaluate the effects of their decisions on the environment. <a title=\"Simulators: learn by doing\" href=\"https:\/\/www.game-learn.com\/en\/resources\/blog\/negotiation-simulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thanks to the <strong>simulator<\/strong>, real-life issues are brought up to be resolved with no risk<\/a>. At the end of each module, both students and teachers will have <strong>instruments to measure the learning quality<\/strong> of the participants, depending on how much of an impact on the environmental, economic and social sustainability their actions have had during the game.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This project reveals the inevitable: <strong>gamified training will increase over the years<\/strong>. When these students, now learning with games, join the workforce in a few years, <strong>they will demand game-based learning programs and serious games for the development of their skills<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is not something to which we can close our eyes; it is the trend of the future that will eventually become<strong> a reality not only in universities, but also in the business world<\/strong>. Fortunately, it is not only the University of Arizona that has proved its commitment to providing opportunities for innovation. Many businesses have also <strong>opened their doors to the use of simulators and serious games<\/strong> for <strong>corporate training<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a title=\"Next stop: from Gamification to Serious Gaming\" href=\"https:\/\/www.game-learn.com\/en\/resources\/blog\/gamification-future-of-e-learning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Companies such as L&#8217;Oreal, IBM or <strong>Gamelearn<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0have shown the power of gamification for <strong>personal and professional development<\/strong> of employees and managers as well as for measuring their learning results.
