Gamification, Game Design, or Game Mechanics- What????

What do you learn in Globaloria?
I learn how to work in Flash and how to create animations. It also teaches us about Game Design and how to look for things in games pertaining topic and graphics.

5 Skills I have learned in Globaloria.
1) How to use Flash.
2) How to properly use a computer.
3) How to plan out a game.
4) How to use codes off of the Wiki.
5) How to present a game.

How can you use these skills learned from Globaloria in a future job?
I could use the skill of learning to type correctly, presenting ideas, and planning out projects ahead of time and then taking the time to follow through with them.

Gamification: Means adding extras that weren't there before like, awarding badges, adding a point system and even adding a highscore page.
Game Design: Is what the game hangs on. Is the skeleton of the game. Also encompasses all aspects of the original game idea.
Game Mechanics: How the player interacts with the game. What they hear and see during the process of playing the game. Also how the game works (arrow keys, mouse, keyboard, ect..)
