Description
This session shares research on remembering - and forgetting - and identifies techniques that foster long-term retention. It then connects these techniques to games and explains how games can help form long-term memories... and business results. We'll share recent research on games and case studies that demonstrate how games can be used for learning.
In this session, you will:
- Identify the potential costs of not remembering
- Gain an understanding of research-based learning principles such as spaced repetition, feedback loops and more
- Identify the connection between research-based learning methods and tangible business outcomes
Attendees will be entered to win a free "starter" package for use in your organization and – after the webinar - are invited to remain for a focused exploration of the game-creation platform, Knowledge Guru.
