Présentation (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Une vie suffit-elle pour maîtriser des jeux tels que les échecs, le bridge, le tennis, Star Craft ou League of Legends ? Un joueur aguerri pourrait investir la majeure partie de son temps libre sans avoir exploré toutes les stratégies et possibilités de ces systèmes ludiques. Malgré la richesse des jeux classiques, les joueurs se montrent avides de changement et de nouveauté. Relativement peu documentée compte tenu [...]Mots-clés : Histoire, Jeu vidéo, Jeux, Culture, Briques, Patterns
ADITHO - a Serious Game for Training and Evaluating Medical Ethics Skills (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract. This paper presents “A Day In The HOspital”, a Digital Serious Game aiming at providing a technological tool for both evaluating and training ethical skills of medical staff personnel. During the game, the player interprets the role of a physician who has to perform a decision-making process that involves his ethical and medical skills. Usability and sense of Presence have been assessed through a specific post-game Likert-questionnaire. In order to evaluate the potenti [...]Mots-clés : Digital Serious Game, Biomedical Ethics, Virtual Reality, Virtual Environments, Decision Making, Medical Training, Ethical Evaluation, Collaborative Training
BrainPlay: Serious Game, Serious Learning? (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract: Games are increasingly being used in educational contexts. The view of some game educationists is that games are able to effectively fulfil the requirements of a constructivist learning pedagogy. It is suggested, for example, that games are useful at representing complexity and often possess mechanisms that make learning more effective through mimicking behaviours required for study. This includes such elements as a call to focus, increasing levels of difficulty of skill, repetit [...]Mots-clés : Game-based learning, Neuroscience, How to learn, Primary school
A Serious Game to make people aware of behavioral symptoms in Tourette syndrome (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Serious games have become a motivational engine to get knowledge, skills and fun at the same time. First of all, the player has to feel that he is play-ing a game where the learning is only a consequence of the playing actions and it is essential to use reliable sources of information to design them in order to obtain the desired results. In this paper, we propose the design and development of a serious game as learning tool and generator of interest about Tourette syndrome in a web-based enviro [...]Mots-clés : Attitudinal change, Computer-based training, Empathy, Entertainment, Game-based learning, Instructional technology
A Virtual Laboratory An immersive VR experience to spread ancient libraries heritage (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract:This paper presents the evolving embodiments of “A Virtual Laboratory”, a VR-based videogame simulating an experiment of medical distillation in a medieval alchemy lab. Players are encouraged to acquire the knowledge needed to master the operations to be performed by consulting the digital representation of an ancient treatise on distillation hosted at the Gunnerus Library of Trondheim, The game is part of a larger project called MUBIL aimed at disseminating the knowled [...]Mots-clés : Serious Games, Library, Virtual Environment, Immersion, Interaction, Learning
A dynamic web-based 3D virtual museum framework based on open data (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract:Continuous developments in the web and computer technologies along with an increasing availability of game engines contribute to an expansion of techniques that bridge culture and education with gaming. In addition, open linked data technologies pave the way towards the semantic web of the future by exploiting the abundance in data availability. In this work we present an innovative and content-dynamic web-based framework, which relies and exploits the rich content of distributed web cu [...]Mots-clés : Games, Three-dimensional displays, Engines, Cultural differences, Buildings, Virtual environments, Navigation
Serious Games for Large-Scale Image Sensing (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract. The access to large-scale imagery datasets has been a signifi- cant obstacle to the success of many applications in application domains that range from 3D modelling to augmented reality, and from infrastructure inspection to urban planning. Although large collections of images already exist, from sources such as Bing Maps, Google Street View, and many photo-sharing sites, they are incomplete, inaccurate and expensive. A solution to this problem could be to leverage on large end-u [...]Mots-clés : Serious games methodologies, Participatory sensing
Enabling Control of 3D Visuals, Scenarios and Non-linear Gameplay in Serious Game Development Through Model-Driven Authoring (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Abstract: Due to the absence of high-level authoring environments and support for non-technical domain experts to create custom serious games, a model-driven authoring framework is presented in this paper. Through model-driven authoring, non-technical people can manipulate the 3D visuals of their serious game, model the scenarios of the game, and even easily add non-linear narrative to the game. The different tools and methods have been implemented and are currently used to build a serious [...]Mots-clés : Serious game, Cyberbullying, Adaptivity, Scenario generation, Non-linear gameplay, Sandbox, Model-driven authoring
VR-based serious game designed for medical ethics training (Diffusion de nos travaux)
Virtual Reality technology is increasingly used for game based learning application, i.e. Digital Serious Games. Simulating reality serious games improve technical skills in different fields and it is often used in medical area. In this research is described “A Day In The HOspital” (ADITHO), a serious game aiming at increase the process of decision making in young physicians through a training that reproduce a realistic clinical situation. In ADITHO the player, from a first person pe [...]Mots-clés : Digital Serious Game, Medical Ethics, Medical Training, Virtual Reality, Problem Based Learning, Decision Making, Physician-Patient Relationship

Creation of better template models of strategic planning and leadership control aided by business simulation games based on real-life case studies and analysis tools Abstract The business simulation games, which expose the players/managers to a huge range of learning objectives, on many occasions fail to provide a template model which can govern the desirable actions that are not always effectively linked to the repetitive cycles of arriving at decisions or confronting a result i [...]Mots-clés : Business simulation games, Heptalysis, CATWOE, VPEC-T, SCRS, MoSCoW
