course/training/instruction fits into the larger curricular framework.
2. Context also refers to the type of instruction and where it will take place (individuals, groups,
class size, face to face, online).
3. Identification of “pain points” (factors that prevent learning advancement) will help the
instructor define learning objectives and structure the placement of game elements in the
curriculum.
4. Then you can begin to identify resources – pre-existing games or ones that you will develop,
which can range from complex to very simple.
5. Finally, you will implement the gamification strategies.
