(Lee et al.,2021). By making AI algorithms the mechanism for solving in-game puzzles, students can learn how and when to apply them to real-world “puzzles.” In addition, narrative design in game-based learning environments can encourage students to “play a character,” stepping into a ...
Aesthetics and Design for Game-based Learning begins by addressing the broad context of game aesthetics, then addresses specific elements with chapters focusing on: * player positioning * game mechanics * narrative design * environment design * character design. Each chapter includes research and ...
Aesthetics and Design for Game-based Learning provides learning designers with insight into how the different elements that comprise game aesthetics can inform the design of game-based learning. Regardless of the cognitive complexities involved, games are essentially entertainment media, and aesthetics play...
Develop.Games. Thor Hall, the creator behind Heartbound and ex-Blizzard developer, has put together the Develop.Games site. It goes through both the development and the business side of creating games. A must-read for any would-be developer. GameMaker’s Toolkit. This YouTube channel is an ...
Researchers often extrapolate the mental models around the games they design from introspection on their own experiences in gaming. While there are many psychological approaches that have been employed over the last decades, for the purposes of human computer interaction, we can take a more practical...
The application of machine learning techniques to learn non-player character behaviours is still being explored by game AI researchers. The application of machine learning in games could enhance game playing experience. In this report, we investigate the design and implementation of reinforcement ...
(CUDiM) – where I talked aboutonline learning and curriculum design for the digital age; and then as a guest speaker for the House of Game//Play and Game Design Masters course, I ran a talk/workshop aroundAlternate reality and pervasive games. Both days were really interesting, with ...

Innovation requires putting learners' ideas or solutions into practice in the real world. For example, it’s innovation if learners design and build a community garden on the grounds of their own school. However, simply designing the garden isn’t innovation. If learners don't have the authorit...
There are multiple ways in which some or all of the research at the intersection of machine learning and computer games can be surveyed. One can survey the applications of one machine-learning paradigm in computer games in one genre. One can survey the applications of multiple machine-learning....
