Game Context

Gamification has been a growing trend as a tool for pedagogical use. Incorporating game-design elements into a non-game context not only has the potential to amplify student motivation and interaction, but allows for the exploration of a new way to learn, teach, and understand history. Gregory of Tours’ Historia Francorum provides us with an interesting viewpoint into the world of 6th century Frankish Gaul. Understanding the motivations behind the characters in Gregory’s work and their relationship with the religious and political atmosphere of the 6th century can be difficult for modern readers. My project uses elements of role-playing to better engage students in interacting with the text. Students inhabit the role of a historical character from Historia Francorum and play out a narrative ‘campaign’ of multiple sessions as that character. Through research and primary source reading they will develop an understanding for their character, the world they inhabit, and their role within that society. Students engage with other students, prepare and give speeches, all in their prescribed roles. This, along with continual feedback on their actions given by the instructor, will cultivate a unique and more engaging learning atmosphere for students. My goal for this undergraduate research project is to develop an alternative approach to understanding the dynamics of early medieval Frankish society. By turning Gregory’s work into an inhabitable space, the large body of text becomes approachable and engaging to students. The final phase of the project which is underway, is testing it in a third year undergraduate history course.

AbstractIn this paper, the descriptive information contained in empirical laws is contrasted with common-sense descriptions of situations and behavior. According to the Hempel-Oppenheim-Schema, explanation is, essentially, conceived as a matter of deductive reasoning in which the fact to be explained is subsumed under one (or more) empirically valid generalizations or laws. However, this kind of explanation is necessarily based on intuitive processes of diagnosis and interpretation. It is argued that these intuitive processes enable the scientist to formulate descriptive sentences which form the arguments of logically correct explanations. It is assumed that people produce common-sense descriptions of situation and behavior in correspondence with their subjective experience of other people's behavior and its determinants. In order to obtain intuitively adequate empirical generalizations and behavioral laws it is proposed that common-sense descriptions of behavior and situations should be integrated into the antecedent and/or consequent of laws. In such a research strategy the regularities between meaningfully interpreted situational and behavioral aspects can be studied.

Slovakia is not perceived as a destination country for forced or voluntary migrants in the European Union. Nevertheless, the number of foreigners living legally in Slovakia has increased more than fourfold since Slovakia joined the European Union in 2004. The aim of this paper is to recognize the views of voluntary immigrants on their own life in Slovakia. In our research, we are interested in migrants who chose small towns in Slovakia, which are culturally and linguistically homogeneous. We have chosen a qualitative research strategy. The research design is of a biographical design and a grounded theory. As a research tool, we chose an individual structured interview (in-depth interview). For qualitative data analysis, we used coding; we set descriptive and inductive codes, subcategories and categories. The subject of research is eight voluntary immigrants to Slovakia who have been living in Slovakia for at least one year at the time of the study. Thus, they meet the long-term migration criterion. Participants were selected on a deliberate basis to cover the phenomenon of voluntary migration. Due to the chosen research design, theoretical sampling was utilized. Our research confirmed the assumptions of voluntary migration described by Pierce (1999). Not only participants from developing countries, but also participants from countries with higher HDI than Slovakia praise the work and business opportunities in Slovakia. Participants identified the following areas of life benefits in Slovakia: employment, economic and social conditions, leisure, cultural and development activities, and environmental issues. Negative aspects of life include negative administrative experiences, lower living comfort, worse social conditions and the environment.

Internet-based attacks have become common and are expected to happen continuously with the development of technology. Therefore, cybersecurity emerged as an important concept in everyday life. It is defined as the protection of cyberspace. Cybersecurity Awareness (CSA) exists as a major defense key in protecting users and systems from internet-based attacks. The research presented in this study aims to assess the level of CSA among college students in Indonesia. This study uses the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method to test students in three dimensions, including attitudes, knowledge, and behavior. To measure this dimension, six focus areas in the topic of cybersecurity were taken and developed from previous studies on the same topic. The six focus areas are password security, cyberbullying, phishing, malware, identity theft, and the last is downloading, sharing and use of pirated content. The results showed that the total level of CSA for college students in Indonesia was in the good criteria. This is indicated by a total percentage of awareness around 80%. Nevertheless there are some focus areas that can be improved to increase the percentage.

The advancements in technology and the increased use of internet, digital business models and Internet of things (IoT) have paved a way for sustainable and inclusive cities that provide their citizens a clean and sustainable environment. Smart solutions of the smart cities focus on making the life of its citizens comfortable but they fail to make their everyday activities motivated in becoming sustainable. This paper proposes a gamification framework that aims to facilitate energy conservation and customer engagement in smart cities. By using game in a non-game context such as in this gamification framework, helps in keeping the fun element of the game intact while achieving the specified learning objective of energy efficiency. The proposed application aims at identifying energy wastages and motivates behavioral changes of the player combining team play, virtual rewards and life simulation. The paper explains various concepts of gamification and differentiates it from game-based learning. It proposes the gamification strategy, game mechanics drivers and motivators, game engine, game architecture, financial rewards and a detailed set of rules for the proposed gamification application. The application targets at promoting awareness and involvement of the players in managing their own resources, choices and behavior for a sustainable development. The paper aims at motivating the citizens and changing their behavior in a desired way.
