This document discusses the GGULIVRR project, which aims to create a generic game for ubiquitous learning using interactive virtual and real world realities. The project explores mobile and contextual learning through a cross-platform mobile client, web-based LMS, and game editor tools. The GGULIVRR game concept uses intelligent tags like RFID and QR codes to trigger multimedia content and position players. The current status is that the iOS solution is being tested with several case scenarios developed and universities participating in an Erasmus program.
A person's “digital footprint” reflects how he or she actively participates in the digital universe, including use of the Internet and social networks, e-mail, cell phones, digital cameras and credit cards.

It Takes 2 to Make a Thing Go Right: A Content Strategist and Designer Talk M...Duo Consulting
When it comes to building mobile products it takes a tight collaboration between content and design. Mobile users are task driven, want localized information, and have multiple elements around them competing for their attention. Design can't meet the users needs by merely creating a lovely interface, and content strategy can't tailor content independent of the device constraints.
Together, Content Strategists and Designers can optimize the user experience for mobile to ensure the products are useful and usable. Through case studies, we will share our method for co-owning the product creation and putting siloed design to bed.

Christian Aaen, Ciklum's VP Services, presents the main mobile apps trends from the "shop floor" perspective and shares successful mobile development case studies from the nearshore. The presentation was used at Ciklum Seminar "Innovative Mobile Solutions and Successful Case Studies From the Nearshore" that took place in Munich, on March 22, 2012.
When the Heart BD2K grant was originally written. We proposed to build something called “Big Data World” to help advance citizen science, scientific crowdsourcing and science education – especially in bioinformatics. This past year, this idea has become Science Game Lab ( https://sciencegamelab.org ) . A collaboration between the Su laboratory at Scripps Research, Playmatics LLC, and recently the creators of WikiPathways.

3. Context
• Artesis University College Antwerp
inspires over 8000 students and almost 1600 staff
members in the widest range of subjects on offer in
Antwerp to link, mix and interconnect this formidable
range of subjects to create surplus value.
• Instituto Superior Politécnico Gaya is a partner.
• Department of Business Studies, Teacher Training and
Social Work
• PWO MOUSE I and II (MObile USE)
small internally funded research projects studying
mobile and contextual learning tools
3
4. Project goal
• Network agnostic solution.
• Platform Independent.
• User may built the solution.

5. GGULIVRR concept
Generic Game for Ubiquitous Learning in Interactive
Virtual and Real Realities
• Touching the world around you
Intelligent tags
• Radio Frequency Identification (RFID);
• Near Field Communication (NFC);
• Quick Response codes (QR)
• Serious gaming
Learning through playing games
• Social constructivism & 21st Century Skills
evoking, stimulating cross-cultural, cross-age and
cross-disciplinary collaboration

9. GGULIVRR – Major Blocks
• Game-player:
• cross-platform mobile client.
• Game-cloud:
• web-based Learning Management
System (LMS) controlling several
underlying systems.
• Game-editor and the game-script:
• incorporates a set of tools enabling
non-technical skilled users to create,
edit and author new games.

10. Generic Game Concepts
• Actions and conditions are triggered by the input of the
gamer or the identification of tangible and tagged
objects by reading their intelligent tag.
• The gamer is presented with virtual multimedia content
or interaction.
• Interacting with the real environment, the gamer reads
the tag of a tangible object. .
• Each GGULIVRR game should have the goal to
persuade people into exploring new places, to get
immersed in the context, have fun and learn.
10
11. In the game
• The purpose of the game is to explore an
area, hence the senses of the gamer must be
focused on his/her surroundings.
• On screen information is therefore mostly
limited to buttons with which the gamer can
choose an option or an answer a multiple
choice question.
• Multimedia in order to enrich the gaming
experience.
• Positioning through intelligent tags.

12. Project status
• iOS solution on the test;
• Several case scenarios purposed;
• Consortium of Universities in an IP –
Erasmus Program.
