Becky graduated from the Colorado School of Mines with a BS in Chemistry. She then went into education and worked with students for 6 years. She has seen the changes in classrooms with the greater inclusion of technology and realized that these students would soon be reaching a different job market than they were expecting. She saw BeckyTech as an opportunity to bridge the gap and help smooth the transition for companies training new employees and monitoring their progress.

This is an example of gamification for the purposes of practice or quizzing. There is an overall objective and questions are attached to each step of the process. Currently, these template questions are accessed randomly from specific question banks associated with each cloud. The more questions in a bank the less likely that the user will encounter the same questions repeatedly. If reporting to an LMS or CMS percentage score or completion rating can be obtained for each user. You can also choose how many tries the user gets at each question.This is my version of “Connect 4”.
