Bridging the gap between location-based games and teaching

چکیده
We present a 6-step didactic planning framework for the integration of location-based games (LBGs) into practical teaching, aiming at a conceptual approach to the dissemination of LBGs for scientific and educational users. We combine approaches from location-based mobile learning with didactic concepts and determine different procedures for the design of a LBG for four learning paradigms. Our framework is practice-oriented and includes considerations to be made during each step in order to ensure a gapless integration of the LBG into the syllabus. We conclude that LBGs offer teachers a method of conceptualizing classes with sustainable learning effect by means of a ludic, versatile, and creative approach.
