A Web-Based Serious Game for Joint Training (Broacasting our studies)
AbstractA Web-Based Serious Game for Joint Training As military systems and processes are becoming increasingly complex and thus more difficult to comprehend, large-scale exercises for NATO Joint Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (JISR) are regularly performed yet are often obstructed by insufficient staff preparedness. To address this concern, this thesis presents the design, prototypal implementation, and evaluation of a modular and web-based serious game called Exercise Trai [...]Keywords : Serious Game, Defence, Military, Simulation, Simulation game
Serious games as a malleable learning medium: The effects of narrative, gameplay, and making on students' performance and attitudes (Broacasting our studies)
AbstractResearch into educational technology has evaluated new computer-based systems as tools for improving students’ academic performance and engagement. Serious games should also be considered as an alternative pedagogical medium for attracting students with different needs and expectations. In this field study, we empirically examined different forms of serious-game use for learning on learning performance and attitudes of eighty 13-year-old students in the first grade of middle school [...]Keywords : Serious Game, student engagement
Interactive Digital Mobile Gaming as a Strategic Tool in the Fight against Childhood Obesity (Broacasting our studies)
The introduction of new technologies into children's daily routines is in many cases associated with negative health impacts. However, technology may also be used to promote healthy practices by way of so-called serious games. Several studies have confirmed that the use of such tools can result in significant health gains, the adoption of healthy eating habits, the practice of an active lifestyle, increased energy expenditure and decreased adiposity. In this context, the authors report a case st [...]Keywords : Obesity, Health, Health game, Serious game
Acceptance of Serious Games in Psychotherapy: An Inquiry into the Stance of Therapists and Patients (Broacasting our studies)
Background: Serious games are computer or video games that contain elements that are specifically designed for the purpose of education or training. Serious games are increasingly being used within healthcare, but their introduction into and application in psychotherapeutic settings as an e-mental health treatment modality raises questions for both patients and therapists. Current research demonstrates the potential role and effectiveness of serious games within a psychotherapeutic context. [...]Gamification and the Psychology of Game Design in Transforming Mental Health Care (Broacasting our studies)
Researchers and health professionals have long been curious about the potential of electronic games for purposes beyond entertainment. This topic is of particular importance given the rapid growth of the game industry, whose products are enjoyed by over 1.5 billion people worldwide (EEDAR, 2015), many of them on mobile devices. As the number of smartphone users continues to grow, with conservative estimates projecting a rise from 2 billion worldwide at the end of 2015 to 6.1 billion in 2020 (Eri [...](Broacasting our studies)
Résumé : Claiming mix game and utilitarian goal, serious games tend to challenge traditional definitions of the game, free activity, separate and unproductive. For the researcher, they can be useful objects to query the boundary between what is a game and what is not a game. To clarify these issues, we submitted as part of an ethnomethodological investigation a set of serious games to a student audience. The results allow to understand the components of the playful [...]Keywords : serious games, playful attitude, playful perception, boundary object, ethnomethodology
Correspondances et contrastes entre jeux traditionnels et jeux numériques (Broacasting our studies)
Progressively, a kind of paradox is created through the scientific literature related to the game and play fields. The number of works dedicated only to video games conceals gradually the works dedicated to traditional games, although there are always strong links between those two kinds of games. It seems thus clear that a mutual lighting should make us wonder about the singularity or complementarities of the two areas. We propose to look at some of these existing links and contrasts between tr [...]Keywords : video game, tabletop game, board game, Serious games, Gameplay, Play, e-sport

Digital Educational Games: Methodologies for Evaluating the Impact of Game Type (Broacasting our studies)
The main research question addressed in this thesis is how the choice of game type influences the success of digital educational games (DEG), where success is defined as significant knowledge gain in combination with positive player experience. Games differ in type if they differ at least by one game feature. As a first step we identified a comprehensive set of unique game features, summarised in the Game Elements-Attributes Model (GEAM), where elements are the defining components that all games [...]Keywords : digital educational games (DEG), Game Elements-Attributes Model (GEAM), Video Games, Classification
