Beyond Gamification: Kaja Sadowski

In this guest episode of the podcast we join Kaja Sadowski for a discussion of how video games can model the best of modern teaching methods for training physical skills, and how we can borrow from them in real life swordplay training. While a lot of attempts at gamifying real life activities involve points, trophies, and other extrinsic rewards, games have far more to teach us about learning and motivation than “do work get shiny thing”. The episode was recorded live on 18 March 2021.
