Re-purposing existing generic games and simulations for e-learning
There is a growing interest among teachers in using games as a part of their lesson plans. A standardised, interoperable approach to the sharing of such game-based lesson plans would allow teachers and educational technologists to compare and contrast Digital Game Based Learning scenarios, allowing best practices and lessons learned to emerge. Although games can be used as ‘add-ons’ in educatio...
متن کاملBeyond data in the smart city: learning from a case study of re-purposing existing campus IoT
In this article we present a case study of our experiences of using existing IoT infrastructure to create a campus scale “living laboratory” for promoting energy savings and environmental sustainability. As a series of lessons for others creating IoT systems from existing city infrastructures we offer the challenges we have experienced through our attempt to join up and re-purpose existing ener...

For example, children may search for vocabulary cues to capture a wicked wizard (game), or engineers may diagnose the problems in a malfunctioning steam plant (simulation). The use of games and s...
متن کاملAuthoring Interactive Software Simulations for e-Learning
E-learning simulation authoring tools are the next generation of e-learning products: they enable tutors to create interactive multimedia course content. Users can walk through applications online and practise as they progress through course material. Much online course content is still based on paper models, but new media need new methods, and the growing availability of elearning simulation t...
متن کاملThe E↵ect of Simulations and Games on Learning Objectives in Tertiary Education: A Systematic Review
The growing popularity of simulations and games invites the production of insights that help academic teachers to use simulations and games in their courses. This article clarifies positive conditions to use simulations and games in tertiary education. Based on a systematic review of literature we tentatively find a positive or neutral relationship between using simulations and games and achiev...
