This article investigated whether it is possible to establish correspondences between game mechanics and particular cognitive stimulations. There are many challenges to prevent and treat cognitive decline with aging or neurocognitive disease. Observing difficulties to establish such correspondences in the scientific literature, we proposed to move away from “classification by genre” or any other type of taxonomy that deviates from the framework of the “Rules/Formal schemas&rdqu

By proposing to study both the genesis and the actuality, but also the implementation and the reception of digital games in the educational worlds, this thematic file aims at enriching the reflection in two fields of research, that of the "educations to" and that of a digital (or informational) culture.

Préhistoire du jeu vidéo Quel est le premier jeu vidéo ? Pour certains, il s'agit de PONG (1972). Pour d'autres, de Spacewar! (1962). Mais en vérité, il existe de nombreux jeux vidéo créés bien avant eux. Par exemple, le jeu du mouton et de la clôture, qui date de 1951. Ou encore le premier jeu informatique français, qui remonte à 1960. À travers ce livre illustré d

This talk aims to establish a state of the art of video games associated with video mapping. This approach will lead us to identify a competition between video projection and screens through Led / Oled technologies. This technological competition, will be an opportunity to question the video game criteria with regard to the video game and to question the relevance of establishing the outgoing interface as a differentiating factor.

Smart Game Based Learning System (SGBLS) design is a complex area. It requires the intervention of multiple actors with specific skills and expertise. Unfortunately, novice game designers who do not have necessary competency inspired from both educational and video games systems cannot successfully create SGBLS. For that, they have to acquire specific skills and expertise in an efficient and active pedagogical manner. To solve this problem, there are several existing techniques, among them learn

A video game for learning is a complex computer system whose objective is to teach a learner new skills in a specific area of knowledge. Interdisciplinary teams responsible for this type of video game face significant communication and design challenges. They must therefore be able to rely on a formal and well-structured process in order to deal with the delicacy of bringing together education and video games. The method described in this paper combines instructional engineering video game devel

AbstractCreating serious games calls for a multidisciplinary design team, including game developers, subject-matter experts, pedagogical experts, and narrative designers. However, such multidisciplinary teams often experience communication and collaboration problems due to differences in terminology, background and the concerns of the people involved. As one step towards solving this problem, we developed a modeling language for authors of serious games to specify both the story and the pedagogi

Abstract How to create an interactive product that encourages high school students to get in contact with the world of chemistry. Or how to get high school students pay any attention to the discipline of chemistry through an interactive entertainment application that besides entertaining can teach some of the most basic concepts of the The science that can better explain the progress of humanity. In the following lines we will present the steps taken in the design an interactive entertainme
