The Elevator Pitch…Floor 1

Graphic design is a morphing field that brings together several disciplines to accomplish a visual stimulation to the user. Gamification is a new trend in the business environment that has gained popularity to bring fun to any type of field. I believe there is potential for gamification and its principles to be applied to graphic design, especially through the area of enhancing user experience and interactive design.

Graphic design is a morphing field that brings together several disciplines to be able to visually interpret messages to the user. Gamification uses gaming principles to bring a sense of fun to a field that may not fit your traditional game. I believe that combining both gamification and graphic design principles, especially in the areas of user experience, interactive design, web design, and mobile media; both fields can merge to provide an enhanced user experience that would make an e-learning environment much more enjoyable…and dare I say it – fun?

    Robert,

    the eLearning reference is still coming out of the clear blue sky to me … kind of an added disconnect at the end of your thoughts. Will this become pedagogical in the end? Let me know. You are offering this as a solution for a number of outcomes: user experience, web, mobile, interactive … and then, poof, eLearning. Is this where you are going? it could be focused on design education online … perhaps. or simply stick to user experience and the web? Be careful not to spread yourself over too many topics.
