The article considers the concept of gamification and its significance for the sphere of education; differentiates the concepts of gamification and game learning; provides the areas of transformation of training systems through teaching the principles of game design in a family learning group in Cheboksary: learning through experience (teachers do not give answers, but offer some tasks and problems through a set of disciplines), control through the skill tree (a skill tree is a visual branched map of the student’s development, which assumes an independent choice of the area of development of his skills and abilities), the design of disciplines, taking into account the genre of video games (games, simulations, strategies, role-playing games, adventures, puzzles), the specific design of the classroom (through the ratio of private and public zones). The article also describes positive and negative effects of the introduction of these orientations: increased motivation, transparency in the assessment of tasks, the desire for development, the point solution of the child’s problems associated with his communication and cognitive skills; the emergence of internal interactions associated with the acquisition of knowledge through experience, constant attention from the teacher, tutor and psychologist.
