Tracking Students? Activities in Serious Games (Broacasting our studies)
Abstract A Serious Game (SG) is a virtual process designed for the purpose of real-world problem-solving. In SG analytics studies, learning processes are tracked using diverse techniques to support the personalization of instruction. However, it is a challenge to find potential meanings of each parameter of the tracking logs and define an appropriate indicator for a user’s behavior. Game tracking logs often only provide limited information regardless of a game context. Therefore, rese [...]Keywords : Serious games analytics, Visualization, Learning path

A Paradigm for the Development of Serious Games for Health as Benefit Delivery Systems (Broacasting our studies)
Abstract—Serious games are developed with the purpose of bestowing a benefit on the user. That benefit could be related to the user’s health, education, safety or efficiency. We propose that the mechanism that the game employs to achieve such a benefit should be identified as the key to the development of a successful serious game. We introduce a paradigm for the design and development of serious games as benefit delivery systems. We suggest that the paradigm can apply to all applica [...]Keywords : Serious game, Health, Health game, Healthcare
