How to Drive Engagement and Collaboration in Communities
Exactly what is Gamification and how can it be used to drive Engagement and Collaboration of SharePoint users? Gamification is driving game-like content in non game-like websites. We mostly know about badges, leaderboards, reputations, and points in SharePoint 2013 communities. More often than not, people laugh at this and think it’s silly. That is, until I remind them that eBay works this way as well as the Boy Scouts. It’s all about people building reputations within communities and that indicates to other community members who is engaged and whom we can go to for subject matter expertise.
On Friday, October 19th, SharePoint expert Tom Robbins presented the free webinar, Understanding Gamification in SharePoint 2013: How to Drive Engagement and Collaboration in Communities. This one-hour presentation dove into the SharePoint 2013 Community features that help get members engaged and help to find information and connections more effectively.
