Techtoberfest 2014


This last week I had the opportunity to speak at Techtoberfest at the Tooele County Schools in Stansbury, Utah. It was an excellent opportunity to share my experiences with a gamified classroom with other educators. The teachers at Tooele County Schools had a ton of questions and I only regret that we did not have enough time.

I originally planned to present 2 sections of an introduction to gamification and one of an advanced/working session. Unfortunately there was a mix up and the 3rd session was a combination of both new and repeat teachers. But that's okay! We were still able to get through a lot of content. If you still have questions about gamification or need help getting started, feel free to contact me:
