«GAMES ARE ABOUT DOING STUFF»

Serious…. Learning

Willem Jan Renger

Edutainment ?! “You could probably get kids to play this for a while and think they were having fun, but after a while they’ll figure out that you’ve handed them what we in educational games like to call chocolate-covered broccoli,”

“Immersive experiences such as those offered by virtual reality create a sense of

empathy and may build pathways to being more engaged citizens”.

“A serious game is an applied game… a game that

other than pure entertainment also brings a

pedagogical purpose. In what comes to health, the

goal is also to create a behaviour change that is

sustainable over time

They are called serious because they must reach the

objective of educating and motivating. They must induce

changes in knowledge, attitude and also behaviour (e.g.:

weight loss, quitting smoking).

It's time to get serious about games for health

…. Change Behavior

external events.”

6 common errors of policy makers in attempting to change a health-

related behaviour

• It is just common sense

• It is about getting the message across

• Knowledge and information drive behaviour

• People act rationally

• People act irrationally

• It is possible to predict accurately

New body of evidence of how to bring about behaviour change is

consistently ignored

These findings do not apply only to health-related behaviour

changes!

Second, developers should consider the four pillars of learning described to

avoid the development of a game which does not fulfil its educational

objectives. Researchers in the field should continue to explore how these

four pillars of learning can be used to enhance serious game engagement

and effectiveness

…. Three steps forwardFirst, in order to obtain a serious game played by its end users, we recommended to find a point where the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation of the players can converge, i.e. where the players can enjoy a future desirable outcome made virtually present in the game.

Finally, evaluation of serious games using a standardized framework will help to legitimize the enthusiasm observed in the health area for these tools.

L’UE nel 2010 indica la strada per aumentare la competitività dell’industria

europea del videogioco

Born Digital / Grown Digital: Assessing the Future Competitiveness of the EU Video Games Software Industry - 2010

“As often highlighted by the relevant players, the European video games industry

has flourished without any focused EU policies beyond some broader horizontal

policies (e.g. e-commerce). Indeed, some parts of the EU regulatory framework

such as copyright, data protection, privacy law, consumer protection, the

protection of minors and the e-money directive are often quoted, mainly as

barriers. “

Gen 2012 – Dic 2014, INTERREG IV C

The digital gaming industry is an emerging market that could represent a new source of growth for the European economy. Many regions do not yet have policies or funding schemes to support this sector.

BOOGames aims to support public regional development authorities to understand the importance of the gaming industry for the European economy, facilitating the exchange of practices.

Lesson Learned

Cases collected in the regions provide useful indications to accelerate the video game industry:

• Policies: United Kingdom, France and Malta have implemented specific support policies for digital and the computer gaming industry.

• The creation of clusters, business incubators and accelerators seems to be crucial to persuade the video game industry?

• Tools and financial funds dedicated as voucher or tax benefits sector are used in many regions?

• Events and awards are always a major driving force for industry, as a network opportunity

The Industry and Policy Context for Digital Games for Empowerment and Inclusion: Market Analysis, Future Prospects and Key Challenges in Videogames, Serious Games and Gamification -2013

[..] we need a clearer view and better data on the 'serious games industry' in general. In particular, we need to know how it can serve the goals of public policy, and individuals in need of support. Stakeholders need to do a great deal of work: this includes policy to bring in new research, raise standards, increase human capacity to create and use games, sustain games-producing organisations, fund exploratory projects and adoption, and develop robust evidence of effectiveness that helps suppliers and users make decisions to adopt..[..]

The global Serious Game market was valued at $ 2.46 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach $ 10.96 billion by 2022 (1), while other sources (2) predict a value of $ 5, 48 billion for 2020.

Mobile educational games are those that will drive the market over the next ten years.

Factors that favor market growth include high return on investment, increasing use of educational games on mobile, consumer brands, improved learning outcomes and a greater need for user involvement in businesses. The improper design, the lack of awareness on serious games and the lack of evaluation tools are the factors that limit the growth of the market.

Jam Today - Learning to change Learning

• Funded under the ICT-PSP EC program, JamToday, has established a network for the sustainable implementation and dissemination of the next generation of educational games across Europe. Game jams have been fundamental to stimulate innovation in the creation, implementation and distribution of educational games.

• Given the attention that emerges on smart learning environments, JamToday promotes awareness and innovation between games and areas of expertise with the intent to demonstrate the real impact

• 3 years - 3 themes• 2014: Improvement of ICT skills (learning to program)• 2015: Adopting healthier lifestyles (nutrition or behavior)• 2016: Support for learning mathematics

Games Industry Day, «investire sui videogiochi significa investire sul futuro».

Game production for 40 million, a market of about 1 billion

The new Cinema law approved for about a year includes video

games from 2017

• Tax credit for games production - 5 million euro, 25% tax credit

limit of 1 million

• Tax credit for the production of foreign video games in Italy

• Tax credit for the international distribution of Italian video games

(12M)

• Automatic contributions to development - (50 M between all

sectors of the law) The implementing decree establishes

parameters for the attribution that consider, among other things,

the number of foreign countries in which a work is distributed, the

female predominance among its authors and the possible

obtaining of international awards.

• Selective contributions to development (2 M)

EU HEALTH FOR GAMES

WHO: 'Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not

merely the absence of disease‘

• 'Digital' will not only transform healthcare - both in evolutionary and disruptive waysbutalso provide people with new possibilities to progress on the other determinants ofhealth (nature, nurture, healthcare)

• Games will be integral part of digitally enabled healthcare services as well as bringingvalue in health literacy, motivation, behaviour change .. and 'Health' overall

• Further effort is needed to innovate at scale – including validation & evidence (HTA),user acceptance, value based care models - leading to large scale deployment

• Games for Health solutions targeting individual's behavioural change should exploreother sectors (energy efficiency, transport, security, climate change)
