Between Game and Reality: Using Serious Games to Analyze Complex Interaction Processes in Air Traffic Management (Diffusion de nos travaux)
AbstractIn 2010 the eruption of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull paralyzed a large part of the European air traffic. Results were massive restrictions in the European and intercontinental air traffic. Even after canceling the aircraft grounding, airport operators, airlines, air traffic controllers, and ground handlers had to deal with the situation that the aircraft and crews were not in the places where they should have been for the correct execution of the flight plan.

An Environment to Support Collaborative Learning by Modding (Diffusion de nos travaux)
In this paper, we propose an environment to support collaborative modding, as a new way to learn a subject. Modding can be defined as the activity to modify an existing game with dedicated tools.

We also think that modding in collaborative settings can help learners both to learn the subject and to learn to collaborate. We first propose [...]Mots-clés : Modding game, Development kits, Learning game 2.0, Collaborative learning
How to Analyse Therapeutic Games: The Player / Game / Therapy Model (Diffusion de nos travaux)
In this paper, we present a new model to analyse therapeutic games. The goal of the model is to describe and analyse the relations between the three aspects of a therapeutic game: the player, the game, and the therapy. The model is intended to game designers. It is a tool to improve the communication between health experts and game designers, and to evaluate the game design coherency of therapeutic games. It also helps to analyse existing games to discover relevant features. The model is built w [...]Mots-clés : Video games, Evaluation, Analysis, Model, Game design, Serious games, Therapeutic
