I overhead this query throughout the July 4th vacation, and I have been enthusiastic about it, “Why can we, as adults, nonetheless take a break from studying in the summertime?”
That thought germinated as I learn the e book Homo Ludens: A Examine of the Play-Ingredient in Tradition by Johan Huizinga. (I don’t suggest the e book; it’s previous, not written in English, and really tutorial.)
And that’s what prompted me to create this video sequence about enjoyable in Studying and Growth.

- Which brings us to the ultimate video about gamification, however from the psychology perspective as an alternative of sport design
