Fakhrullah, Great job with clear speech, clear definitions, and visuals that added to your meaning! There were some long pauses at times, but that's probably related to Pecha-Kucha being a new type of presentation.

I like your quesiton about when gamification could become a distration from learning. I have concerns about it in some social contexts. For instance, if you have a class with boys and girls, and one group consistently beats the other, it could cause problems. Also, I'm not sure how well it would work if you tried it in a university course with students of different ages in a culture that highly values honor. Would older learners feel ashamed if they lost to younger learners?

While there's a huge potential for its positive impacts, I haven't found good studies about using it in cultures like those of Central Asia.

I'd love to hear your opinion on this!
