As I get ready to write a grant to game-ify our online orientation, I was re-reading Rajat Paharia‘s book, ” Loyalty 3.0.” Below are his 10 Key Mechanics of Gamification (See Chapter 4 of the book!)
| Fast Feedback | I get immediate feedback or response to actions |
| Transparency | I can see where everyone (including me) stand, quickly and easily |
| Goals | I have short and long term goals to achieve |
| Badges | I can display evidence of my achievements |
| Leveling Up | I can achieve status within my community |
| Onboarding | I can learn in an engaging way |
| Competition | I can see how I am doing against others |
| Collaboration | I can see work with others to accomplish goals |
| Community | I can see what the community is doing; the community can see me |
| Points | I can see tangible, measurable evidence of my accomplishments. |
