  • Designing an Interactive Game to Encourage Cognitive Empathy As a Bullying Prevention Tool
    International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 7 (4.19) (2018) 144-157 International Journal of Engineering & Technology Website: www.sciencepubco.com/index.php/IJET Research paper Designing an Interactive Game to Encourage Cognitive Empathy as a Bullying Prevention Tool Hanif Baharin1*, ShukorSanimMohdFauzi2, Azlina Ahmad3, Fazillah Mohmad Kamal4 1,3Institute of Visual Informatics, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 2UniversitiTeknologi MARA 4Faculty of Quantitative Sciences, Universiti Utara Malaysia *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] Abstract Bullying can have detrimental consequences to the victims, hence there is a need for bullying prevention programs at school. In this paper, we describe a gameplay model which may be usedto elicit cognitive empathy as a part of anti-bullying program among schoolchildren. We interviewed 79 schoolchildren from four schools in order to find out their understanding of bullying and their play behavior, and we observed their play behaviorduring recess. We found that most schoolchildren in our study instinctively know that bullying is wrong because it hurt others but attributethe consequences to self as imposed by authorities as the reason why hurting others is wrong. We argue that, this shows that they demonstrate affective empathy but would benefit from cognitive empathy training. From our findings we came out with design guidelines and produced a bullying morality conceptual model, which then informed our gameplay model. To validate the gameplay model, we designed and tested an indoor physical computing game prototype that encourages player to collectively exercise their cognitive empathy. The results from our game testing shows that the game mechanics proposed in our gameplay model do encourage players to exercise the empathy.

  • What Kind of Root System Do You Have?
    Quarterly Newsletter of ASA & Associates LLP / Corporate Catalyst India Volume 23 | Issue 2 July-September 2018 WHAT KIND OF ROOT SYSTEM DO YOU HAVE? The sequoia redwood trees or redwoods, located in California, are said to be the tallest on the planet. They can grow to heights of nearly 400 ft with a diameter of nearly 25 ft. That is roughly the size of a 37-story skyscraper! One would think that something that huge would have a root system that goes down deep in order to make it stand that tall. Not the case at all. These trees have a unique and an incredible root system. Compared to their mammoth size, their roots are relatively shallow. The roots go down just 6-12 ft, and yet, these trees rarely fall over. They withstand strong winds, earthquakes, fires, storms, and prolonged flooding. How does something weighing up to 500 tons, reaching over 350 ft in height and living for centuries remain standing with roots only going down just about 10 ft? The interesting thing about these redwoods are their large network of roots often extending to a hundred miles and intertwining with the roots of other redwoods, quite literally holding each other up. The trees grow very close together and depend on each other for nutrients. We aspire to be like the redwood tree. To be intertwined and interconnected, supportive, dependent, yet interdependent as team mates. Interlocking with each other and holding each other up. A powerful network and interlocking system makes a powerful team. HOLDING EACH 3 @ Glance 6 Fun & Frolic 11 Talent Unfold & OTHER UP.

If these games were to "Fade away to the point of extinction " he said," it would not just be the loss of a game-but the loss of the spirit of childhood. Traditional Games – Our Treasure Traditional games taught people about culture and traditions, made us aware about society and environment.

  • Indigenous Games and Its Importance
    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 8 August 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 Indigenous Games and Its Importance Author Dr. Somappa Badiger, College Director Of Physical Education & Sports Science Govt.First Grade College, Mariyammanahalli, Hosapete Tq. Ballari Dt. Karnataka Abstract: Sports and games have always been an integral part of India’s rich culture and history. Sadly, today’s kids are so engrossed in playing video games that traditional games like Pallanguzi, Lippa, Kabaddi, Gilli-danda have been completely forgotten. Gone are the days when kids simply couldn’t wait to go out and play a few rounds of Pithoo or Kith-Kith (Hopscotch) with their friends. The reduction in physical activity has given rise to a host of health issues in kids. Therefore, reviving traditional games will provide a host of health benefits. Throughout history, indigenous peoples have had many traditional sports and dances. It is through their history that they have turned these into competitive games and have made it an influential impact on the world and their people's culture. Playing games has always been an exciting part of growing up for us all. We recollect with happiness our childhood games and gadget free days. Sports is a great way to make friends and be healthy as well. Keywords : Sports and games, Indigenous, Aboriginal, Playing, culture, country, Importance. Introduction : Once upon a time, way before the impressionable minds were corrupted by video games and play stations, kids made games out of all that was available to them: wooden sticks for dice, shells and stones for making their next strategic move, and floors for gaming boards.
