Designing and Using Games to Change Behavior
Free Webinar:
Date: Monday, May 18
Time: 2 p.m. Eastern / 11 a.m. Pacific
Research shows that games change behavior. In
this session, Mike Beall will explore the keys to games that have a positive
effect on students, both in K12 and Higher Ed.
Mike Beall is the Director of Gear Learning, a
game development studio within the Wisconsin Center for Education Research.
Over his career, he has led the design and development of many learning games
across a variety of domains including affective neuroscience, astrophysics,
regenerative medicine, implicit bias, and environmental science. Mike’s
fundamental belief is that the design of impactful learning games is based on
proven instructional methods, emerging research, and sound pedagogy. Over the
years, Mike has honed his ability to work effectively with faculty, subject
matter experts, and other stakeholders through an iterative approach to map gameplay
mechanics to a variety of learning objectives. Beyond creating games themselves, Mike also works closely with outreach organizations to engage with
the local communities to learn through playing games and to inform the design
of future games through focus groups and playtesting.
