Workshop at Serious Play Conference, Orlando, USA

University of Central Florida Orlando, FL, United States

Is Gamification keeping up with Reality? (Corporate/ Non Profit)
Vineet Raj Kapoor
Workshop at Serious Play Conference, Orlando, USA

Date:  6:30 p.m. - 7:15 p.m. 25 June 2021 GMT+5:30

It is foolish to assume that there are ungamified systems that exist. The issue is more about the gamification losing track due to changed Reality. As a gamifier our task should be to get Reality back to track or Rather, tween the system according to the Reality (NeoReality) - actually both.

This is useful for afficianados of Gamification who would try to find answers / solutions through Gamification and are many times surprised by lack of workability of solutions. I would cover environment issues which impact solutions differently in different environments. For e.g. Social work is voluntary, employment is not (even though prima facie evidence points to volutarism element of the employment system). This is not a academic discussion - it has direct implications for practitioners from the fields of military, corporate, education.

If possible, I would like to share a case study as a take away. However let me see how it shapes up.

I would like to share an actionable plan that you can use with your Design Thinking/ Problem Solving Team. And if possible play a game to think our way out of a problem. remember, that the core of gamification is involuntariness and my actionable plan is about building choices into any process including delivering of knowledge/ learning.

Speaker at Gamification Conference at DES Pune University

Speaker at Gamification Conference at DES Pune University
Keynote Speaker at Gamification Conference at DES Pune University

Chandigarh Design School Founder Vineet Raj Kapoor delivered his keynote speech at the International Conference on “Activity Based Language Learning: Challenges and Opportunities” that was organized by DES Pune University in collaboration with ICSSR and Coolture Desighns Pvt. Ltd. on 7 February 2025. The topic for the Panel discussion was Gamification in Education and Knowledge Systems.

Conference was attended by about 100+ Faculty and Students across India.

Vineet Raj Kapoor (IDT Lead Expert Worldskills representing India, and Founder SXILL and Chandigarh Design School) while sharing valuable insights into Gamification, he said,”Gamification is often used an excuse to micromanage learning. It defeats the entire purpose of gamification. Rather one should always be mindful of the core attributes of Gamification like Volunteerism, Choices, Willingness, etc. He also said that the Game Mechanics should be very simple and consist of very few elements like in Chess, or sports like Badminton. He said the Leaderboards and Feedbacks were the Killer Features of Gamification and should be implemented in the right manner for engagement to happen. Right to Learn is a great concept that I have often used to bring determination to the table. Story is an optional feature, but used well, it can enhance the quality of learning. He quipped, “Don’t worry all this would be part of my upcoming book – SOLVXD: Think in Steps – that would be coming out soon.

Neelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL mentioned, “This was the third time Chandigarh Design School tendered a Faculty Development Program at Pune University. Earlier we have done programs for Thapar University, Chitkara University, GNDU, Panjab University among others. We are also doing international Programs in Design Thinking with leading institutions abroad. We are aware that training a faculty is much more important as it can directly impact the lives of 1000s of students.”

USA, April 26, 2025 – Vineet Raj Kapoor, Founder of Chandigarh Design School and iXDA Local Leader, has been announced as a distinguished jury member for the upcoming Serious Play Awards, to be held from August 13–15, 2025, at Rochester, New York. The pre-evaluation of online games took place in April 2025, where a select panel of global jurors assessed the top entries from this year’s finalists.

Mr. Kapoor was invited as a Juror for both Board and Digital Game categories, representing India and the Asian Subcontinent, marking a significant milestone for Indian design education on a global stage.

Earlier, Kapoor had also contributed to the Serious Play Conference 2023 held at Toronto Metropolitan University from October 11–13, 2023. He delivered a standout presentation in the Military and Professionals Track on “Gamifying Skill Training”, showcasing his 12+ years of experimentation and success in game-based learning within the Indian skilling ecosystem.

"It was an incredible honor to serve as a juror and speaker at this globally respected event," Kapoor shared. "Being the sole juror from the Asian Subcontinent and the only Indian speaker, it was a unique platform to interact with the brightest minds and explore global innovations in game-based education."

The Serious Play Conference, founded in 2008 by Sue Bohle, a PR veteran with experience promoting legendary game studios like Atari and Activision, has grown into a global hub for professionals using games in learning. The 2023 edition featured over 100 speakers across seven tracks, including Military, K-12, Higher Education, Healthcare, Game Design, Research, and Technology.

Hosted by Sue Bohle and Jan Hanson, the conference offered rich discussions in both Board Game and Digital Game Design. Kapoor’s presence as a juror and speaker reinforces his growing reputation as India’s leading authority in Gamification and Industrial Design Technology, and highlights Chandigarh Design School’s commitment to global collaboration and innovation in education.
