The 'Synthesis' Virtual Museum?an open virtual exhibition creation tool (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract The continuous development of web services and computer infrastructures complemented by the increasing availability of game development software engines, contribute to an on-going expansion in the release of serious games (SG) in diverse areas, ranging from entertainment, cultural heritage (CH), education, artificial intelligence (AI), sociology, military to health systems [1]. In this sense SGs can be thought of as bridging culture and education with gaming. By utilizing contempo [...]Mots-clés : Cultural heritage, Serious Game
Lewispace: an educational puzzle game with a multimodal machine learning environment (Diffusion de nos travaux)
In this paper, we will present an educational game that we developed in order to teach a chemistry lesson, namely drawing a Lewis diagram. We also conducted an experiment to gather data about the cognitive and emotional states of the learners as well as their behaviour through out our game by using three types of sensors (electroencephalography,eye t [...]Mots-clés : Educational game, Electroencephalogram, Eyetracking, Facial ex-pression recognition, Logistic regression model
Serious Games for Large-Scale Image Sensing (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract. The access to large-scale imagery datasets has been a signifi- cant obstacle to the success of many applications in application domains that range from 3D modelling to augmented reality, and from infrastructure inspection to urban planning. Although large collections of images already exist, from sources such as Bing Maps, Google Street View, and many photo-sharing sites, they are incomplete, inaccurate and expensive. A solution to this problem could be to leverage on large end-u [...]Mots-clés : Serious games methodologies, Participatory sensing
Enabling Control of 3D Visuals, Scenarios and Non-linear Gameplay in Serious Game Development Through Model-Driven Authoring (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract: Due to the absence of high-level authoring environments and support for non-technical domain experts to create custom serious games, a model-driven authoring framework is presented in this paper. Through model-driven authoring, non-technical people can manipulate the 3D visuals of their serious game, model the scenarios of the game, and even easily add non-linear narrative to the game. The different tools and methods have been implemented and are currently used to build a serious [...]Mots-clés : Serious game, Cyberbullying, Adaptivity, Scenario generation, Non-linear gameplay, Sandbox, Model-driven authoring
VR-based serious game designed for medical ethics training (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Virtual Reality technology is increasingly used for game based learning application, i.e. Digital Serious Games. Simulating reality serious games improve technical skills in different fields and it is often used in medical area. In this research is described “A Day In The HOspital” (ADITHO), a serious game aiming at increase the process of decision making in young physicians through a training that reproduce a realistic clinical situation. In ADITHO the player, from a first person pe [...]Mots-clés : Digital Serious Game, Medical Ethics, Medical Training, Virtual Reality, Problem Based Learning, Decision Making, Physician-Patient Relationship
Serious Games opportunities for the primary education curriculum in Quebec (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Curriculum integration is one of the main factors in the teachers’ decision-making process when deciding to use games in formal educational contexts. Based on this observation, we aim to provide primary education teachers with a selection of (serious) games in each of the main areas of the primary education curriculum in Quebec. The taxonomy of the games selected includes Serious Games (SG), designed for educational purposes from the start, but also repurposed games, which, despite not hav [...]Mots-clés : Serious Game, Education

Creation of better template models of strategic planning and leadership control aided by business simulation games based on real-life case studies and analysis tools Abstract The business simulation games, which expose the players/managers to a huge range of learning objectives, on many occasions fail to provide a template model which can govern the desirable actions that are not always effectively linked to the repetitive cycles of arriving at decisions or confronting a result i [...]Mots-clés : Business simulation games, Heptalysis, CATWOE, VPEC-T, SCRS, MoSCoW
Retour d'Expérience sur les Ressorts Motivationnels d'un (Jeu Sérieux) Auprès des Jeunes Tunisiens (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Cet article se propose de mettre en évidence les ressorts motivationnels des « jeux sérieux » à partir d’une expérimentation menée auprès d’un échantillon d’étudiants Tunisiens. Pour ce faire on a consacré une première partie théorique pour exploiter l’univers des « jeux sérieux » afin de comprendre les avantages de ce média en termes de m [...]Mots-clés : Jeux sérieux, Motivation, Scénario Pédagogique, Interactivité
An activity theory-based model for serious games analysis and conceptual design (Diffusion de nos travaux)
There are currently a number of models, frameworks and methodologies for serious games analysis and design that provide useful interpretations of the possibilities and limitations offered by serious games. However, these tools focus mostly on high-level aspects and requirements and do not help understand how such high-level requirements can be concretely satisfied. In this paper, we present a conceptual model, called Activity Theory-based Model of Serious Games (ATMSG), that aims to fill this ga [...]Mots-clés : Serious games, Educational serious games, Serious games analysis, Serious games design, Activity theory
