Lectora Inspire solved both challenges—find out how! Vicki Mueller will present the business case, how the game was designed, and go behind the scenes on some of the Lectora elements of the game.

Concurrent Session Block 2
Everything I Need to Know I Learned from Gaming
Andy Lockwood, Auto-Owners Insurance
This session provides concrete examples of how clever interactions can be developed to reinforce learning while, at the same time, engaging learners in new and interesting ways—all without requiring too much outside of Lectora Inspire’s native functionality. Utilizing built-in Lectora components such as transparent buttons, completion statuses, actions, and variables, the session will showcase examples that transform a page-turning course environment into an interactive exploration familiar to anyone who has ever played the most basic video game. The goal is to introduce developers to a world beyond “click-to-reveal” interactions and “click next to continue” advancement.
Concurrent Session Block 1
The Game of Tax
Nick Elliott and Justin Ball, H&R Block
Taxes aren’t fun, right? Well, H&R Blocked created an eLearning game to increase engagement and fun through real-life experiences that their Tax Professionals could relate to, while developing the problem-solving skills they need in the field. In this session, you’ll learn how the basic concept was built in the framework of Lectora and how key components of the game were designed and built for reusability and faster production of the final course.
Concurrent Session Block 2
Throw Them Right In: Using Game Mechanics and Performance Support to Promote User Engagement

Game mechanics were incorporated to simulate situations employees would experience on their shift.
