Making an App

Abstract

QizBox is a web application that uses online communication and game mechanics to create a social learning environment. [...]audience members can be encouraged to post their QizBox awards to their Facebook wall, giving them the opportunity to boast about their achievements within a social learning or collaborative environment. Over the summer of 2011, I took the opportunity to show off the project at the Emerging Learning Design Conference at Montclair State University, where it was met with great enthusiasm. Since it’s a web app, it can be accessed through a web browser on any laptop or tablet device.
