Custom eLearning Solution

Level up your eLearning with gamification


Gamification training, or gamification of learning, is the use of gameplay elements in a learning experience. At Lionforce, we know that gamified learning, when backed by an understanding of neuroscience, is a powerful tool for inspiring learners to challenge themselves.

Why use gamification in corporate learning?

  • Gamification uniquely motivates learners and enhances corporate training.
  • By adding game elements like leaderboards, points, timers, and challenges:
    • Learners can approach training autonomously and meaningfully.
    • It engages their brains and introduces healthy competition.
  • Traditional training can suffer from too much or too little information.
  • Our gamified learning solutions:
    • Allow learners to demonstrate their knowledge in a stimulating way.
    • Enable incremental improvement and mastery of topics.
    • Prevent informational overload.
  • The result is true learning autonomy and mastery.

Our approach to gamified learning

  • Gamification can:
    • Increase productivity by 50%
    • Reduce overall training time by 90%
    • Reduce new-hire training time by 70%
  • Often dismissed as a buzzword, but effective when combining neuroscience, cognition, and engaging design
  • Brain pathways:
    • Default mode network (DMN) for "autopilot mode" during traditional training
    • Working memory network (WMN) activates when challenged or entertained, aiding long-term memory
  • Lionforce uses neuroscience to trigger WMNs through gamification:
    • Incorporates stories, challenges, and real-time feedback
    • Enhances long-term information recall without learners realizing it
 

Benefits of gamification

Applying gamification judiciously at the right places and times adds a layer of depth and entertainment to your content. Some of the benefits you’ll see from gamifying your training include:

1

Learner motivation. Gamification rewards learners and challenges them to keep going.


2

Learner autonomy. You’ll tap into intrinsic motivators like competition, improvement, and completion while allowing individuals to learn at their own pace and level. 


3

Instant feedback. Games provide feedback as players demonstrate their mastery. If they do well, it’s onto the next level; if not, they get another chance to see what they missed.


4

Social learning. Friendly competition and collaboration allow learners to forge new connections.

Frequently Asked Questions

1What is gamified learning?
Gamification design adds game-like elements to training and learning experiences. This can include awarding points, incorporating leaderboards, and adding levels to training content.
2What types of training can be gamified?
Because gamification is a more light-hearted training approach, it’s best used for subjects that match its tone, such as product training or soft skills.
3How is gamification used in training?
Our learning and user design experts will help you decide where to incorporate games into your training to best encourage user completion rates or introduce a social element. Gamification works best for lighter topics that require a high rate of recall.
4What is an example of gamification in corporate training?
ELM was tasked with making a compliance course for a car rental company more “tolerable.” Using a road trip theme, we issued each user a Compliance Passport, which they used to collect stamps for completing each micro course along the simulated road map. The stamps worked like badges, rewarding employees for completing a module, and the map showed users where they were going—and where they had been.
5What is ELM Learning’s process for gamification?
If you’re thinking of gamification for your next training, we can help. We always start by asking “What motivates the audience and what gaming features make the most sense?” We create games that translate to your workplace and don’t distract the learner from productivity. Our gamification design experts ensure that the games relate to your specific business goals and that the gaming data can be used to measure your ROI.
