L'emploi des jeux dans l'enseignement des langues étrangères : Du traditionnel au numérique (Broacasting our studies)
This article questions the place of games in language teaching and more specifically examines how the transition between the use of traditional games in the classroom and their adaptation to digital media has been carried out. Are these games the same or have they changed ? Has the digital switchover preserved the entertaining aspects of these games or have these aspects changed in order to accommodate more serious content ? We will thus examine the potential added value of digital ver [...]Keywords : learning games, language learning, tasks, action-based learning, playful attitude
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
Summarising the 7 Dimensions of an Action-Oriented Framework for Video Games (Broacasting our studies)
AbstractThis article summarises our Ph.D. thesis – an analytical view on the player-game relationship through the lens of an action-oriented framework, centred on fundamental entities defined as actors, entities through which action is enacted in the game and of which the player and the game system are a part of. With this in mind, the grounding principles of this framework are seeded in a transition of action into experience, based on communicational systems that structure the dynamic for [...]Keywords : Action, Chronology, Design, Responsiveness, Thinking and Actuation, Transcoding, Video Games, Depth

Evaluating teaching using games (Blog post)
Edutainment is the idea of using games for training. But is it possible to evaluate edutainment? Here's a proposed model, based in particular on the initial work of Freitas and Oliver (2006). The following table summarizes our proposed CEPAJe evaluation model: This model is a double-entry grid. Vertically, there are 5 dimensions: Context, Teacher, Pedagogy, Learner and Game (CEPAJe). Each dimension is analyzed in relation to the key stages of training: introduction, progress and [...]Keywords : Serious game, Edutainment, Ludopedagogy, Evaluation, Education, Learning, Analyze, Training
Playing in 7D An Action-Oriented Framework for Video Games (Broacasting our studies)
Grounded on a perspective in which action is a defining trait in video games, this work proposes the development of an action-oriented framework focused on the analysis of the relationships between the player and the game system centred on the existence of actors, which we define as entities responsible for the actions that affect the game – a category in which the player and the game system are included. We describe the grounding principles of this framework as focused on a transformation [...]Keywords : Action, Chronology, Responsiveness, Thinking and Actuation, Transcoding, Video Games, Design, Depth
