In endogenous design, the gameplay emerges from the content, thus seamlessly integrating the act of playing with learning. ...
The identification of these design strategies is a significant step towards building a framework for endogenous design of educational games. ...
In the space of integration methods, we find an inquiry based approach for connecting learning objectives to gameplay (Hall et al. 2014) . ...

Foundations of Game-Based Learning
2015
Educational Psychologist
We conclude that a combination of cognitive, motivational, affective, and sociocultural perspectives is necessary for both game design and game research to fully capture what games have to offer for learning ...
We then review design elements of games that facilitate learning by fostering learners' cognitive, behavioral, affective, and sociocultural engagement with the subject matter. ...
These decisions were influenced by the authors' theoretical approach to the use of digital games for learning. ...

Design Principles and Ethical Issues of Gaming Instructional Materials: Unifying the Views of Educational Technology and Simulation and Gaming
2012
STUDIES IN SIMULATION AND GAMING
In order to achieve this goal, I think that the integration of the model of the target world and the model of the learning process is necessary. ...
I also think that individualized learning is important, since the results of group learning may be greatly dependent on the combinatory qualifications and abilities of group members. ...
Moreover, because gaming is a tool for data collection, an important aspect of game design involves the ability to log game play for debriefing. ...

Integrating serious content into serious games
2013
International Conference on Foundations of Digital Games
This paper reviews current approaches suggested in research on serious games, derives what that research means for studies of serious game practice, and describes a study of how learning content is transformed ...
This paper finds practitioners have a learning objective focus to game design aiding their choices of the right mechanics and representation, balancing fun and education, and evaluating the game. ...
The integration of serious content as a domain of research within serious games has been investigated as well [e.g., 7, 8, 19] , but it has been from an academic not practitioner perspective. ...
