Semi-automated Map Generation for Concept Gaming
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conventional learning games have often limited flexibility to address individual needs of a learner. The concept gaming approach provides a frame for handling conceptual structures that are defined by a concept map. A single concept map can be used to create many alternative games and these can be chosen so that personal learning goals can be taken well into account. However, the workload of creating new concept maps and sharing them effectively seems to easily hinder adoption of concept gaming. We now propose a new semi-automated map generation method for concept gaming. Due to fast increase in the open access knowledge available in the Web, the articles of the Wikipedia encyclopedia were chosen to serve as a source for concept map generation. Based on a given entry name the proposed method produces hierarchical concept maps that can be freely explored and modified. Variants of this approach could be successfully implemented in the wide range of educational tasks. In addition, ideas for further development of concept gaming are proposed.

One way to understand meta-heuristic optimisation process is to look at it as an automated trial-and-error problem solving technique. This view provides interesting parallels to video gaming, which often requires the gamers to solve various problems using trial-and-error approaches. This paper considers the possibility of formulating optimisation problems in SBSE as video games and discusses ch...

Concept learning belongs to the fundamental challenges of educational technology. Contrary to the current trend of designing and implementing contents for various web–based virtual courses, concept learning requires cognitive tools rather than digital materials. We introduce a novel scheme to generate computer games from concept maps made by a teacher or a learner herself. Concept gaming exceed...

The development of common conceptual understanding is one of the essential steps in professionalization of a field of practice. To support this process, we collected Concept Maps (CMaps) from practitioners in the field answering the same focus question. Our goal was to expose variability in the understanding of the concept under investigation and to identify common themes, which could be later ...
