Luarn, Pin; Jhan, Ya-Cing; Lin, Hong-Wen – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2022
The study has chosen perhaps the most well-known serious game in the field of supply chain management: The Beer Game, and uses the means-end chains theory in an attempt to explore the innovative attributes that learners may wish to experience while playing. The study will also construct the psychological hierarchical structure of "innovative…

Callies, Sophie; Gravel, Mathieu; Beaudry, Eric; Basque, Josianne – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2017
This paper presents an architecture designed for simulation serious games, which automatically generates game-based scenarios adapted to learner's learning progression. We present three central modules of the architecture: (1) the learner model, (2) the adaptation module and (3) the logs module. The learner model estimates the progression of the…

Here, the authors emphasize that the success of an EVG will be more achievable if the game quality is measured, and suggest the use of playability property as a…
