The digital version of the Serious Game (SG) represents an attractive and undoubtedly relevant teaching tool and resource in the right contexts and situations. Nevertheless, the idea of exposing undergraduates to screens in order to benefit from digital SGs is questionable. Serge Tisseron warns us about children's screen consumption. In the school environment, screen exposure is undoubtedly added to that of domestic consumption. If the latter is already excessive, the school could find itself in [...]Keywords : Serious game, Learning, Logo, Robotics, Experimentation, Kindergarten, Algorithms

Serious entertaining and serious modding: concepts and appropriations in the fields of education and health (Broacasting our studies)
This paper, of a hypothetico-deductive nature, proposes first to provide a state of the art of games hijacked for educational and health purposes, then to define the concepts of Serious Diverting and Serious Modding to introduce a typology of games hijacked for utilitarian purposes. Once we've covered these elements, we'll examine the appropriation of these diverted games by players in the world of education and health. The idea is to identify common and specific elements for each ecosystem invo [...]Keywords : Serious game, Video game, Serious gaming, Health, Education, Appropriation, Health game, Edugame

A Brief History of Serious Games (Broacasting our studies)
AbstractSerious Games are now an established field of study. In this field most would attribute the rise of Serious Games to Clark C Abt’s creation of the term in 1970, or indeed Ben Sawyer’s popularization of it in 2002. However, considering the rich history of purposing non-digital games, itself preceded by discussions of purposing play that are traceable to the work of Plato, it can be said that Serious Games is a contemporary manifestation of centuries old theories and practices.

CEPAJe (Colectyng) (Broacasting our studies)
In a pedagogical context where play is chosen as a means of mediation, tools are needed to evaluate such an activity. This is particularly useful for identifying areas for improvement, as edutainment is complex to master. To our knowledge, one of the few evaluative models of this type is that of Sara de Freitas and Martin Oliver. Their 2006 grid crosses dimensions related to the device and human aspects. But it remains incomplete. The role of the teacher, for example, is missing. And yet, as &Ea [...]Keywords : Ludopedagogy, Edutainment, Pedagogy, Assement, Serious Game, Video game, Grid, Model
