What can we learn from video games and video game design that can help us as music educators? Jared Brockmeyer is joining us today to dive into how understanding video game design and student motivations can help us better reach and connect with our band students.

Jared has recently been presenting on gamification in education and has so much incredible information about the topic. In this episode, he is sharing how he made the connection between video games and music education, how we can structure our instruction to resemble the structure of video game, and why it's important to understand player type theory so we can understand and engage our students better.
