Is your Life just one big RPG?

This is a extremely interesting speech of Jesse Schell from Carnegie Mellon University at the DICE 2010 about the future of Gaming and how it could affect our Life and it is just a must-see, watch it!

Especially interesting was the part about Grading, Jesse Schell mentioned a experience system for grading, used by Lee Sheldon at the Indiana University, however students get experience points for participation, homework, assignments and everything else. This led to an increase and advancement in the class.

Additional the future could be scaring, which Jesse Schell predicts, he is correct this gaming aspect could be beneficial for us, as I has to admit achievement points are motivating for me.
