What is
BAZOOKAS
1. what is the educational added 

value of games?

BAZOOKAS
Before, some research parameters:
– 392 students.
– 20 classes (3rd grade).
– 52% boys, 48% girls.
– average age was 8 year.

BAZOOKAS
First outcome:
– credibility is important for knowledge transfer.
– certain level of identification with the game
character is important but the most important.

BAZOOKAS
Some interesting results

BAZOOKAS
– 98% likes playing games and want to play again.
– 86% thinks that the games aren’t hard to play.
– 62% detect the educational nature of the game.

– 15% computer educational purpose.

BAZOOKAS
What did we do to measure the results?

BAZOOKAS
– creation of traditional lesson book, fairy tail & games.
– all 3 contains the same 3 games.
– testing:
	
 	
 - level of difficulty.
	
	
 - comprehensibility.
	
	
 - duration.
BAZOOKAS
– 85% likes the games.
– 50% likes the traditional book or created story.
– 95% would love to play the games again.
– difficulty of the games are higher in the book or fairy tail.
– 66% of the kids paid very carefully attention during
playing the games.
BAZOOKAS
So…

BAZOOKAS
– games are at least as effective as traditional learning
materials.
– knowledge transfer of the games is also very high.
– the games sentisize the players to pay more attention
on their dental hygiene (aim of the platform)

BAZOOKAS
Conclusion one

BAZOOKAS
When you want to do pure knowledge transfer, 

traditional learning material and games work 

both efficiently.
!

When choice behaviour or intention to change something is
the target, games can help you, if created advised.
BAZOOKAS
2. how to integrate computer games 

in a most efficient way in the class?

BAZOOKAS
2 conditions to test in a living lab:
Condition 1:

Condition 2:
BAZOOKAS
Knowledge transfer is in both conditions the same.
!

The level of attention for students in condition 2 

was higher.
!

The desire to learn more about this subject was for both
conditions the same.
BAZOOKAS
Conclusions two

BAZOOKAS
We can conclude that the learning effect, in the case
where the students playing games, is at least the
same as the traditional way of learning
!

Kids indicated that they could pay more attention in
case when games were integrated
BAZOOKAS
We can conclude that the games are most effective when
they are played before the traditional lesson
> arouse interest during class
!

When games are played before the lesson, you better not
integrate the game character in the traditional lesson
afterward.
BAZOOKAS
Combination of lessons and games are at least as
efficiently.
!

Play games before the lesson, to arouse interest.
!

When playing games after the lesson, be sure you start
with a lesson where the game character has a
prominent role.
