Hello Emma,

 

Thank you for the nice comment and thank you for stopping by.

 

Glad you find my post useful. As I've said earlier, gamification is very powerful, and it can really change people's action. I'm very glad to see that people like yourself are using it to change people's behavior for the greater good. There is nothing more rewarding for a scientist than that.  :-)

 

Rest assured that there will be more articles on this mini-series for the science of gamification. There are at least 3 more that I'm planning on writing. If you miss any earlier articles, they are here:

     1. Gamification from a Company of Pro Gamers

     2. The Magic Potion of Game Dynamics

 

I look forward to seeing you again later.
