  • Memorial Day Weekend Off Right with Hasbro Games at Home Or Away - You Won't Be Sorry!
    May 27, 2010 Start Memorial Day Weekend off Right with Hasbro Games at Home or Away - You Won't Be Sorry! EAST LONGMEADOW, Mass., May 27, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --According to AAA, more than 32 million travelers are expected to travel on vacation over Memorial Day weekend - a 5.4 percent increase from 2009. Whether traveling to beaches, camping grounds or U.S. attractions, Hasbro has your family fun covered! When packing, toss in some of Hasbro's newest games to keep everyone engaged and entertained on the open road, in the air, and once you've reached your final destination. "While the economy continues to be rocked by occasional waves of uncertainty, improved economic performance from one year ago should cause more Americans to take vacations this Memorial Day holiday," said Mary Yarber, Director, Program Management for AAA. "Whether traveling to see loved ones or exploring a new travel destination be sure to plan ahead for the most enjoyable vacation by taking advantage of AAA traveling planning tools and discounts on hotels, car rentals and attractions. Be sure to pack a vacation survival kit that includes activities for the whole family such as Hasbro games for enjoyable ways to pass time when traveling." A recent survey conducted by Hasbro found that American families plan to play games during time off this summer. Of those respondents planning a vacation, four in ten (41 percent) would rather have access to a closet full of board games than a big screen TV - talk about unplugged entertainment! If you don't have a game closet at your vacation destination, plan ahead and bring family games such as THE GAME OF LIFE, or CRANIUM.

  • Ludopor – Platform for Creating Word Educational Games
    LudoPor Word Games Creation Platform Samuel José Raposo Vieira Mira March of 2009 Acknowledgements While I have done a lot of work on this project, it would not have been possible without the help of many great people. I would like to thank my mother and my wonderful girlfriend who have encouraged me in everything I have ever done. I also owe a great amount to my thesis supervisor, Rui Prada whose advice and criticism has been critical in this project. Next I would like to thank the Ciberdúvidas community, especially Ana Martins, for having the time and will to try and experiment my prototypes. A special thanks is owed to my good friend António Leonardo and all the users that helped in this project especially the ones in the weekly meetings. 2 Abstract This thesis presents an approach for creating Word Games. We researched word games as Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble and more to establish reasons for their success. After this research we proposed a conceptual model using key concepts present in many of those games. The model defines the Game World with concepts such as the World Representation, Player, Challenges, Links, Goals and Performance Indicators. Then we created LudoPor - a prototype of a platform using some of the referred concepts. The prototype was made using an iterative design starting from paper prototypes to high fidelity prototypes using user evaluation tests to help define the right path. In this task we had the help of many users including persons of Ciberdúvidas (a Portuguese language community). Another objective of LudoPor was to create games for Ciberdúvidas that would be shown in their website.

  • Learning Board Game Rules from an Instruction Manual Chad Mills A
    Learning Board Game Rules from an Instruction Manual Chad Mills A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science University of Washington 2013 Committee: Gina-Anne Levow Fei Xia Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Linguistics – Computational Linguistics ©Copyright 2013 Chad Mills University of Washington Abstract Learning Board Game Rules from an Instruction Manual Chad Mills Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Gina-Anne Levow Department of Linguistics Board game rulebooks offer a convenient scenario for extracting a systematic logical structure from a passage of text since the mechanisms by which board game pieces interact must be fully specified in the rulebook and outside world knowledge is irrelevant to gameplay. A representation was proposed for representing a game’s rules with a tree structure of logically-connected rules, and this problem was shown to be one of a generalized class of problems in mapping text to a hierarchical, logical structure. Then a keyword-based entity- and relation-extraction system was proposed for mapping rulebook text into the corresponding logical representation, which achieved an f-measure of 11% with a high recall but very low precision, due in part to many statements in the rulebook offering strategic advice or elaboration and causing spurious rules to be proposed based on keyword matches. The keyword-based approach was compared to a machine learning approach, and the former dominated with nearly twenty times better precision at the same level of recall. This was due to the large number of rule classes to extract and the relatively small data set given this is a new problem area and all data had to be manually annotated.

  • Raising Readers: Tips for Parents
    Raising Readers: NIU Literacy Clinic Tips for Parents What is Reading Vocabulary? Adapted from: Elish-Piper L. (2010). Information and Ideas for parents about fluency and vocabulary. Illinois Reading Council Journal, 38(2), 50-51 Reading vocabulary refers to the words that a student can read and understand. When students know more words, they are more able to understand what they read. There is a strong connection between understanding the meaning of words and understanding a story, textbook, or other reading materials. Children learn new words in two main ways – indirectly and through instruction. Children learn words indirectly through reading, listening to others read to them, and having conversations with others. Most words that children learn are learned through indirect methods! This means that it is very important to have your child read, listen to others read to him or her, and participate in conversations since these indirect methods will help to build your child’s vocabulary. Children also learn words through instruction at school and in other educational settings. Through a combination of indirect vocabulary encounters and vocabulary instruction, children can learn the words they need to succeed as readers. What Can Parents Do to Promote Vocabulary Development at Home? Here are a collection of ideas to build children’s reading vocabulary at home using indirect and instructional strategies and activities. 1. Talk with your child and try to use new and interesting words. Exposing your child to new words is a great way to build your child’s interest in learning words. 2. Read to your child as often as possible.
