GAMIFICATION

1. WHAT IS GAMIFICATION?

   • Game designer Nick Pelling in 2002: "the application of game metaphors to real-life tasks that influence behaviour and improve people's motivation and involvement"
   • Sebastian Deterding says: "the use of game elements in non-ludic contexts"
   • Karl Kapp: "the use of game mechanics, its aesthetics and game thinking to involve people, motivate action, promote learning and solve problems"
   • Santiago Vallejo (creator of 'Zombiología')
   • David Ruíz: "Gamification is the art of adding to situations THAT ARE NOT GAMES some of the elements that make us all love playing so much":
