Has anyone been able to create their own game and use it in the online learning environment?
I don't think I have the time to invest in creating a game since I online teach part-time and work a full time job as well.

I have not seen gaming used in my experience as an elearner or instructor. You-tube and other social media are great ways to share concepts, but not all students click each link and it is unclear whether it is advancing their learning.

I agree that it is difficult to incorporate games into some courses. Unfortunately, it doesn't always fit.
It would be nice to have the resources to create new ways to engage students, especially in the online environment.

I find that students underestimate the importance of engaging with me as well as the other students in the course. They will not respond to calls or emails... maybe as a way to avoid the truth. Being able to get them on the phone or engaged through email is really important and the students need to realize it's just as important for them to engage as it is for the instructor to engage with them.
