Gamification & Game Studies (Advanced Lecture)

This advanced lecture (3 ECTS) will present and discuss systems that use game design ideas with a focus on Gamification. We pursue the following goals:

  • Sharpening the understanding on what you can do with ideas from game design beyond board and video games.
  • Providing you with an overview of game-related research areas in human computer interaction by presenting notable examples.
  • The lecture’s focus on gamification will teach you about aspects to consider if you want to create gameful systems.

We recommend that you have passed the Human Computer Interaction core lecture, if you plan to attend to this lecture.
