I'm preparing a new class now for the fall - "Meaningful Gamification."

This will be a split-level course for undergrads and grads that will be case study in the beginning, and then project-focused at the end. At the School of Information Studies where I teach at Syracuse University, we have students who are going into corporate, educational & library, and non-profit settings, so projects where the students pick their own domain and create information-based gamification systems.

Oh, and before anyone asks.. I don't yet have a syllabus for it. :) That's my summer project.
