Gamification is a hot topic right now. But what is it? How does it work, and why should you care? Tune in to this webinar to learn how to apply game mechanics to engage citizens and solve agency problems. Gamification can integrate the most engaging, exciting, and addictive aspects of game play into your agency’s business processes. We will discuss the newly formed Federal Games Guild. Led by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, the group was established in November 2011. We will also highlight projects created by a variety of agencies and collaborators. Finally, you will learn how to become involved with the group. A recording of the talk can be found at: http://www.howto.gov/training/classes/gamification]]>

Many of us in government want to change the way our agencies work. These changes can take many forms. Some of us may want to fix a process or change/eliminate counterproductive rules. Others may wish to shoot for more ambitious goals that require a change of culture. The current push to expand the use of collaboration tools like Web 2.0 technologies is one example of a big and important culture change.Effecting change in a large organization is difficult. Those difficulties can be magnified greatly in the public sector. Entrenched rules and structures pose many obstacles. Resource limitations often seem to be the things in greatest abundance. And the possibility of criticism from senior bosses, Congress and the media tends to make many managers risk averse.So how does one overcome all these obstacles to bring about significant positive change? Here is the 12 step guide. ]]>

His father was kind enough to allocate him 100 KB of the family’s 10 MB hard drive: one of the first commercially available of its kind.

After graduating from high school, he started working for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Boulder, Colorado. At the same time, he attended and then graduated from the University of Colorado majoring in electrical and computer engineering. He continues his work at NOAA today as a program manager.
