Hello Heather,
Thank you for providing the resources.
I agree that there are a lot of hype now, and many people are definitely in the enthusiast corner of the ring now. That is precisely why I wanted to provide some science and well founded psychology & behavioral economics behind the hype. :-)
And finally, there are definitely a lot of pros and cons of gamification. And it is precisely because they are so effective at driving and manipulating human behavior. It all depends on how people use it and at what level and intensity. Overdosing of anything, even very good thing, can easily turn bad.
Thanks again for commenting. See you around on Lithosphere.
