Lance, Justin (2005) Fun and gameplay : review of Prensky, M. (2002) The Motivation of Gameplay, the real twenty-first century learning revolution, On the Horizon, Vol 10 No 1 pp 5-11. Investigations in university teaching and learning, 2 (2). pp. 98-99. ISSN 1740-5106
This review article examines a topic close to my heart. I believe that fun is a motivator of happiness, leading to greater interaction, motivation, reward for both student and staff. Although the context of Prensky’s (2002) article is a discussion relating to e-learning or computer based learning - the 21st century learning revolution - the notion of learning through gaming and fun is just as relevant to classroom-based activities through the enhancement of motivation.
