Gamification & Analytics – What’s Possible?


As gamification becomes more pervasive in learning programs across the globe, training professionals have an unique opportunity to generate powerful analytics that can shape future learning experiences.

Traditionally learners and their managers have focused on capturing who took the test, when they took it, and what the final score was on the program. While that is important, they are missing out on other important data that when used effectively encourages autonomy and mastery.

Throughout this interview listeners will be able to better understand how to set-up their training programs to enable them to measure “real” results and what tools & platforms are best to leverage in order to make them a success. In addition we will address Tin Can/X-API and how standards such as these can create personal learning experiences.

In this episode Jordan and Monica discuss:
  • The impact of gamification in learning programs on the data that can be generated
  • What kind of tools are out there for learning professionals to accomplish the above?
  • What is the potential impact of Tin Can/X-API?
  • There is a lot of buzz about adaptive learning but there is a different view on it called Personal Learning Experiences. Why is that important and how is it different?
