The Gamify Story

About Founder, Kurt Olson
Kurt Olson is an instructor at Modesto Junior College in California. Kurt is a former swim coach who found that playing games while under strenuous training conditions allowed for athletes to achieve higher levels of performance while smiling and having fun. Through research, it turns out that gamification and play is effective in academia as well, if not under-utilized.
