This document discusses game-informed learning and how game principles and elements can be applied to education. Some key points: - Games are immersive, narrative-rich environments that provide feedback and allow players to take on roles and learn through replayable experiences. This aligns well with educational goals. - Game-informed learning takes a playful approach to teaching and uses narratives, but does not require the end product to be an actual game. It focuses on intrinsic motivation rather than extrinsic rewards. - Virtual patients are proposed as an example of game-informed learning, allowing students to take on patient roles, make choices with consequences, and replay scenarios to reinforce lessons. - Labyrinth

Pete Fleenor's Webinar
This document discusses using e-learning to teach metacognitive and creative thinking skills. It explains that metacognitive skills involve planning, monitoring, and assessing solutions and can be taught effectively through simulations and games. Specific types of thinking skills training focus on general transferable skills or specific problem-solving skills. Effective metacognitive training focuses on skills relevant to tasks learners will perform and includes practice implementing skills. Simulations model real-world systems and teach procedures or domain knowledge, while games are competitive activities constrained by rules. Leveraging games/simulations for learning involves matching them to goals, making learning essential for progression, and integrating guidance.
Edu375technologyarticle
The document discusses using video games to teach students in schools. It notes that extensive research is being done to see if video games can benefit students. While video games may not teach handwriting or reading, they could work for teaching math since building games requires using mathematical equations. However, using games to replace the entire school curriculum could cause students and teachers to lack basic communication skills and knowledge. Incorporating games into the curriculum without focusing solely on them may be a safe way to transition to new methods while keeping traditional teaching.

Game Based Learning in New Zealand
Case studies of several game-based learning projects developed, used in classrooms and evaluated in New Zealand.
Presented by Stephen Knightly, MD of InGame and Chairperson of the NZ Game Developers Association at the EdTech Leaders Summit, Auckland, New Zealand in July 2016.
Educational games and simulations
Educational games and simulations can provide benefits to learning but also have some disadvantages. They have been shown to improve motivation, engagement, and cognitive learning when used effectively. Some examples mentioned are Froguts, which allows simulated frog dissection, and Chucky's Chicken Stacker, a word game with adjustable difficulty levels. However, excessive use may reduce social skills and physical activity. Effective use requires guidance, appropriate challenges, and time for reflection.

vgAlt ~ Video Games as Learning Tools
Video games can be used as learning tools to develop reading comprehension and other skills. They incorporate decision trees and causal networks that represent formal spaces of possibility and the basis of causal analysis in discourse processing. Walkthroughs that explain how to play games can be examples of narrative composition. When readers have strong comprehension skills, they can use higher-level processes to support lower-level skills like decoding. Games can represent design elements found in research and curriculum and motivate sustained engagement through play.
Trends and issues ppt
The document discusses how serious games, simulations, and virtual worlds can be effective learning tools by engaging students and promoting skills like problem-solving, collaboration, and critical thinking. Serious games keep students motivated by incorporating gameplay elements, provide personalized learning experiences, and allow students to experiment safely. While such tools are not yet widely used in K-12 education, the document suggests they could help students learn if integrated into curricula.
Gaming to Learn: Research Meets Classroom Practice
Presentation given at the 2016 UNI Ed Summit on 3/10/16. Given to a room of about 20 people ranging from 18 - 60 years old. It was presented as a discussion of the essence of gaming, how it could be used in learning and the results of the research on how successful gaming can be in math, science, language learning, and history.
Games, Gamification and Interactivity for Learning
The document discusses how to apply game design principles to instructional design. It describes a scenario where two teams compete to design a game about slaying dragons. Throughout the scenario, the teams are presented with design decisions and arguments for why challenges, risk, curiosity and player choices lead to more engaging learning experiences based on research on self-determination theory and motivation. The document concludes by providing five tips for instructional designers to think like game designers such as beginning with activities, creating mystery, challenges, risk, and meaningful choices for learners.

Quest2Teach: The Impact of Immersive Games to Bridge Theory & Practice in Tea...Arizona State University
This is an overview of the theory, game-infused curricula, and research findings that drive Quest2Teach, an innovative and immersive teacher education program.
Quest2Teach is a series of game-infused 3D virtual learning curricula and socio-professional network, created from within a teachers college and designed for teacher education, to help bridge between educational theory and its application to classroom practice.
In Quest2Teach, students create a professional avatar, play out roles in 3D narratives as the protagonist, solve complex problems, fail safely, and see the impact of their decisions while gaining fluency in theories-in-action. Pre-service and in-service teachers evolve their professional identity in a variety of narrative-based 3D role-playing scenarios, each with a particular theoretical focus, and embedded within a larger experience-based curricula and network.

This document discusses how video games can be incorporated into education. It begins by defining key concepts like game-based learning, serious games, and virtual worlds. It then explores the learning principles found in games, such as active learning, critical thinking, and feedback. The document examines ways that games can be used in schools, such as for teaching mathematics or foreign languages. It also discusses using games as the school curriculum, for example through role-playing games. The document concludes by considering ways to extend game-based learning through machinima, programming, professional learning communities, and things to consider like collaboration versus cheating.
Gaming and education
Video games can create learning environments by modelling real-world situations virtually. An example is modelling disease spread through human interaction in games. This allows manipulation of scenarios that can't be implemented safely in real life. Games also boost cognitive function and brain efficiency in players. Teachers can use this by creating educational games or modifying existing ones to impart lessons. They can also use games to create desired emotional responses in students and teach social skills.
Gamification to Increase Student Engagement
The document discusses using gamification to increase student engagement in education. It provides an overview of gamification, including defining key elements of games like goals, rules, and feedback. The benefits of gamification for learning are described, such as improved engagement, motivation, and development of 21st century skills. Various game-based learning strategies and techniques are presented, such as using games to learn new content, simulations to test theories, and debriefing sessions.

This presentation was given at the 2017 Serious Play Conference, hosted by the George Mason University - Virginia Serious Play Institute.
Game-based learning is a form of game play with specific learning outcomes; it is instructionally designed to provide a balance between subject matter that needs to be learned, playing games, and the capability of the learners to apply the knowledge and skills in the real world. Whether you’re rolling dice or racing against the clock, adding gamification elements to e-learning courses is a great way to keep learners focused and motivated.
This presentation will focus on:
Elements of Game Based Learning
Critical Aspects in Game Creation
Demonstration of three games: Who wants to be a Millionaire, Backward Basketball and Dusty the Dragon.
Practical experience and challenges with the creation and use of Games in Learning will occur. Participants will be asked to join in the discussion.
Using Educational Games and Gamification
Motivation, clear objectives, critical thinking about consequences, and instant and abundant feedback are all elements of the best learning experiences. These are also elements of the best games. There is momentum behind games in education, including a large number of teachers who are using games like Minecraft and Civilizaton or gamifying their classroom to teach core concepts and develop 21st century skills. Attend this webinar to learn more about games and game techniques can be used in education.

Quest2Teach Overview - iTeachAZ
Quest2Teach is a series of game-infused 3D virtual learning curricula created for teacher education. These immersive experiences provide authentic and individualized practice for teachers, designed to help them make the leap from theory to practice. In Quest2Teach, pre-service and in-service teachers evolve their professional identity in a variety of narrative-based 3D role-playing scenarios, each with a particular theoretical focus, and embedded within a larger experience-based curricula and professional network.
In these immersive worlds, learners create their professional avatar, play out roles, solve authentic problems, fail safely, and see the impact of their individual decisions and trajectories, while gaining experience and fluency in these theories-in-action.
The first of its kind in teacher education, Q2T was created at ASU’s Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College through a unique collaboration between our Center for Games & Impact and partner game-design studio, E-Line Media. Contact anna.arici@asu.edu for guest accounts and more information.
Quest2Teach Instructor Training & Webinar
This represents a 2-hour training for instructors of Quest2Teach, consisting of a 1-hour overview of the individual games, theory, Nexus, Network, Teacher Toolkit, research findings, and best ecology for implementation of these games. This is followed by a 1-hr facilitated gameplay by the instructors where they follow the curricula guides, login and play the games, create an avatar, navigate the virtual worlds, and post reflections in the network, just as their students will do.
Nyscate2009
Connecting to learners means connecting to the tools of their everyday world. Therefore, video games, now ubiquitous among two full generations, must be considered when examining curriculum and instruction. In this session, participants will deconstruct the learning and design concepts behind video games, examine how these concepts align with research-based classroom practice, and explore ways in which gaming should be incorporated into the definition of what it means to be literate in society today.
Hybrid Simulation (Part A)
This document discusses hybrid simulation, which combines multi-method simulation for educational interventions and research protocols. It begins by introducing terminology used in game-based learning and virtual environments. Next, it discusses pedagogical approaches that support learning in virtual spaces, including experiential learning, situated cognition, and designing authentic environments. Finally, it provides an introduction to CliniSpace and OpenSim, which are virtual environments that can be used for hybrid simulation.
Digital games as a powerful tool in learning 0.1
The document discusses how digital games can be effective learning tools. It explains that games provide immersive environments where players use information to develop knowledge and skills through imitation, experimentation and practice. The document also discusses how games motivate learning through features like clear goals, immediate feedback, meaningful choices and rewards. It suggests games are good at simulating environments and situations to encourage problem-solving skills.

KSDE video games in the classroom
Games in Education provides an overview of how games can be used for educational purposes. It discusses how games tap into how the brain naturally learns through patterns, emotion, and collaboration. Games keep students engaged through activity, feedback, and problem solving. They also allow students to explore concepts through simulations. While early educational games focused on drill and practice, modern games incorporate student-centered learning and scaffolding. However, challenges remain in aligning games with standards and assessing learning. Overall, the document argues that games can effectively teach students if designed according to educational theories of learning.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
