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.

This day of observance promotes awareness and the celebration of industrial design, encouraging WDO Members and non-members to hold events such as exhibitions, panels, workshops, open houses and other social functions.
From 2009 to 2011, an annual student poster competition was held for WDO's Educational student members to participate; this activity concluded once the official World Industrial Design Day logo was introduced by WDO. Each year, a theme is determined by the WDO Board of Directors and announced months in advance of 29 June in order for companies, associations, design schools and design agencies to plan their activities and outreach.
