In what ways can the gamification of learning environments inadvertently lead to the discovery and exploitation of loopholes by students or participants? How do cheat codes and loopholes impact the development and balance of in-game achievements, trophies, or other forms of player recognition? Are there instances where the gaming community has identified and brought attention to beneficial loopholes that ultimately led to positive changes in a game's design or mechanics?
