Gamified Learning with POINTS Cryptocurrency
Ever wish you could learn like you are playing a game? And not have to pay anything to learn?
Steemians the wait is over.
Steemit Gaming is here.
You no longer are students.
You are gamers.
You no longer get grades.
You get POINTS.
Grades are levels.
Teachers are gaming leaders.
The time to learn, have fun, and earn POINTS and SBD is here.
Each game is led by a gaming leader and can be finished as quick or as long as the individual gamers want.
We realize everyone learns differently and at different paces so we are here to accompany that and make sure each gamer plays to the best of their abilities.
Another thing gamification of learning helps with is getting over the fear of learning something new. It is only natural as humans to feel this way as news things usually triggers change and change is hard.
But as knowledge is power and applied knowledge is influence, it is important for us to get over this as humans to progress to achieve each one of our life purposes.
Gamification of life is one of the biggest macro life trends currently and is a passion of @officialfuzzy. Read his thoughts on gamificaiton here: https://steemit.com/gaming/@chiefmappster/officialfuzzy-s-thoughts-on-gamification
Three types of games will be played on Steemit with various new subject games being introduced over time.
The first type of game is the Curation Game.
Curation Games are a type of game that is made for a platform like Steemit where the curation of content is rewarded and members are actively aware of this aspect.
Curation Games can be played for any subject related matter, so anything from coding, learning a new language, learning a how to start a business, or write an ideal Steemit post.
Curation Games are played through Quick Questions.
A quick Question is posted by a gaming leader based of that specific game.
For example, the question could be "What is the difference between Python and Java?" And the gamers go searching the Steemit community for the best content already created by Steemians that they feel like best answers this question or adds to the discussion.
The gamers then comment the piece of content they curated for the game with why they feel like it answers the question and/or adds value to the Quick question discussion.
The comments are then voted with POINTS similar to BeyondBit, Whaleshares, and Vocieshares based on the gmaing leader(s) ranking.
POINTS and SBD will also be given out on a weekly basis because each gamer will complete the games in different times so this adds a little framework to Steemit Gaming.

The second type of game offered by Steemit Gaming is the Commenting Game.
Commenting Games are so ideal for communities such as Steemit where comments can be rewarded with recognition, feedback , and rewards.
A gaming leader posts a Quick Question and the gamers respond with a comment that best answers, analyzes, or shares information that wins the game according to the gaming leader.
The content in the Quick Question could be a short case study, or even quick analysis. the game are up to the gaming leaders.
The comments are then ranked with POINTS similar to the Curation Games and gamers earn recognition, feedback, and rewards for their comments.

The third and final type of game offered initially by Steemit Gaming is the Creation Game.
The Creation Game are games that are sparked by a Quick Question by a gaming leader the requires some sort of content creation as the response.
The goal is to have gamers respond to the Quick Question with thoughtful, unique, valuable content through their Steemit posts.
Then the gamers Steemit posts are ranked by the gaming leader (s) by using POINTS as upvotes and also on a weekly distribution just like the other above-mentioned games.

One of the awesome aspects about these games is that they are built for Steemit.
Each one of these games is a central feature in the utility and user experience of Steemit.
We are all familiar with curating posts, commenting on posts, and creating our own content.
So it is a ideal fit for gamers to start having fun, obtaining knowledge, and earn some POINTS and SBD in the process.

Gamification is a tendency to make boring things more exciting. Learning don't have to be boring. One can know 500 pokemon names but not 50 country capitals because the reward is way better on pokemon.
Amennnnnnn thank you for seeing that part of the vision holy smokes :)
