edutainment / infotainment
an approach to education that frames the instructional material in the context of entertainment, such as a game or sensationalist video. This approach is grounded in the importance of motivation but is often criticized when the entertainment compromises the informational content, by distorting it, distracting from it, or presenting a watered-down version of the information.
