Mustn’t Miss: Engagement in Learning and Gamification

“Engagement: A Critical Element in Learning and Gamification,” a recent post from gamification and simulations thought leader Karl Kapp highlights four modes of interactivity (or levels of engagement) that may occur within an interactive system such as a learning game. 

• Mode 1: Cognitive interactivity or interpretative participation.

• Mode 2: Functional interactivity; or utilitarian participation. 

• Mode 3: Explicit interactivity or participation with designed choices and procedures. 

• Mode 4: Beyond-the-object-interactivity; or participation within the culture of the object.
