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.

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

This article explores the boundary between the world of simulation games (referred to as « serious games »), and work. Our interest was in examining a helicopter simulator integrated game used to train 350 managers per year. This qualitative research, based on the theoretical and methodological framework of the psychosociology of work, aims at understanding the perception which professionals, namely managers, have, of the device and its environment, as well as the way they

Abstract This study explores a novel way for analyzing tournament structures. Our goal is to find the best suitable tournament under considered purposes. Aside from the number of matches, we address on two other important aspects: competitiveness development and ranking precision. Competitiveness development emphasizes the importance participants’ motivation in every match while keeping the matches exciting throughout the tournament. Ranking precision reflects the convincement of tour
