With any luck at all, this book will save you countless hours heading down rabbit holes.<\/p>\n
While you might find something wonderful in those rabbit holes, this book will get you started on your path to understanding gamification and some of the pitfalls that might ensnare you.<\/p>\n
It is written as ten short essays that offer a more personal view on things I have tried over the years and what I\u2019ve learned.<\/p>\n

Some years back, in parallel with my going all in with my gamified approach, I began to ask some fairly fundamental \u201cWhat If\u201d questions. Such as, \u201cWhat would happen if I DIDN\u2019T have deadlines for the work in my classes?<\/p>\n
Some of the answers I found surprised even me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
