An Eco-System View of Development
Presented at the panel onExperiences in Healthcare-Related Serious Game Development
IMSH, Session #164New Orleans
Introduction
• Engineering as applied to the life sciences
• E-Learning• Medical modeling, 3D
imaging from CT/MRI• Surgical planning• Surgical simulation• Virtual worlds for learning
Parvati Dev, PhDStanford University and
Innovation in Learning California
I believe that healthcare learning will use virtual
experiences as essential tools
Ecosystem Overview
Curricular Objective
Serious Game or Sim
Underlying Technology
Institutional Capability to
Accept and Use
Selected View of Ecosystem
Competency in communication e.g. through role
playing
Virtual Medical Environment e.g
an Emergency Department
Manikin
Capability to accept:• Technology – compute
power, network, firewall• Usability – learning curve,
adaptable to local needs• Faculty – understand how
to teach with new tool
Technology issues:• Platform: Second Life,
Open Sim, Unity, VastPark
• Depth of interactivity• Patient physiology model• Scripted / exploratory• Assessment tools
Our response to analysis of ecosystem?
