  • The History of Educational Computer Games
    Beyond Edutainment Exploring the Educational Potential of Computer Games By Simon Egenfeldt-nielsen Submitted to the IT-University of Copenhagen as partial fulfilment of the requirements for the PhD degree February, 2005 Candidate: Simon Egenfeldt-Nielsen Købmagergade 11A, 4. floor 1150 Copenhagen +45 40107969 [email protected] Supervisors: Anker Helms Jørgensen and Carsten Jessen Abstract Computer games have attracted much attention over the years, mostly attention of the less flattering kind. This has been true for computer games focused on entertainment, but also for what for years seemed a sure winner, edutainment. This dissertation aims to be a modest contribution to understanding educational use of computer games by building a framework that goes beyond edutainment. A framework that goes beyond the limitations of edutainment, not relying on a narrow perception of computer games in education. The first part of the dissertation outlines the background for building an inclusive and solid framework for educational use of computer games. Such a foundation includes a variety of quite different perspectives for example educational media and non-electronic games. It is concluded that educational use of computer games remains strongly influenced by educational media leading to the domination of edutainment. The second part takes up the challenges posed in part 1 looking to especially educational theory and computer games research to present alternatives. By drawing on previous research three generations of educational computer games are identified. The first generation is edutainment that perceives the use of computer games as a direct way to change behaviours through repeated action. The second generation puts the spotlight on the relation between computer game and player.

  • Gina Rodriguez “Adult Elena”
    Gina Rodriguez “Adult Elena” Gina Rodriguez plays adult Elena, the current President of the United States in the Disney+ original series “Diary of a Future President.” Born and raised in Chicago, Rodriguez currently lives in Los Angeles and is a graduate of New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is best known for the title role on the series “Jane the Virgin,” for which she won a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Television Series Musical or Comedy in 2015. Her voice can be heard as “Carmen Sandiego” in the Netflix animated series playing the title character and reviving the popular character which audiences fell in love with in the 1980s and 1990s. Gina Rodriguez’s profile has been rising steadily since her breakout performance as the titular character in “Filly Brown” at the Sundance Film Festival in 2012. Named the “Next Big Thing” and one of the “Top 35 Latinos Under 35” by The Hollywood Reporter, Rodriguez continues to be noticed by many due to her incredible acting ability, philanthropy, producing and directing. The Los Angeles Times has referred to her as “forthright and formidable, a festival ingénue who deserves to be discussed in the same breath as Elizabeth Olsen and Jennifer Lawrence.” She was recently named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world and awarded Variety’s Humanitarian Award. Rodriguez recently wrapped production on the independent film “Unititled Heist Thriller” starring opposite Evan Rachel Wood and Richard Jenkins. Other film credits include “Annihilation,” “Ferdinand,” “The Star,” “Deepwater Horizon,” “Smallfoot,” “Miss Bala,” and the Netflix film “Someone Great,” which she starred in and served as a producer.

  • Amy Clary: "Digital Nature: Uru and the Representation of Wilderness in Computer Games"
    Digital Nature: Uru and the Representation of Wilderness in Computer Games Amy Clary The desert is intense. The parched red earth bakes under the relentless glare of the afternoon sun. Thirsty-looking clumps of sage, too squat and sere to cast much shadow, dot the dry, cracked land. On the barbed wire fence is a sign, sunbleached and wind- scoured, that reads “No Trespassing” and “New Mexico.” A rusty Airstream trailer blends into the unforgiving landscape like the shell of a desert tortoise. Two oases of shade beckon: one under the awning of the vintage Airstream, another cast by a distant red rock butte. I head toward the butte, eager to explore its alluringly steep slopes and jagged profile. I climb up the slope and realize that it is not a butte at all but the entrance to a sort of canyon, a cleft, with a seductive assortment of shapes and shade inside it. I take anoth- er step and … the whole world dissolves into unintelligible poly- gons of color. All I see is chaos, and try as I might, I can’t get back to the desert. Such are the frustrations of playing Uru: Ages Beyond Myst (Cyan Worlds, 2003) on a computer that barely meets the game’s mini- mum system requirements. Reviewer Darryl Vassar writes, “Uru will make even the beefiest video card sweat at the highest detail settings…” (“Incomparable beauty” section: para. 4). I had hoped that by turning the game’s graphics settings down to the bare-bones level, my processor, video card, and memory would be sufficient to the task, but they were not.

  • Technology, Togetherness, and Adolescents 109 Revolution by Calling Iphones “Isolators” and Calling the Proliferation of Handheld Computers M.A.D
    TECHNOLOGY , TOGE T HERNESS , A ND ADOLESCEN T S : CRE at ING A ME A NING F UL ADOLESCEN T LE A RNING CO mm UNI T Y IN T HE DIGI ta L AGE by Ben Moudry Ben Moudry has written a comprehensive overview of the current challenges facing parents, schools, administrators, and students regarding what he calls “handheld computers,” commonly known as smart phones. His annotated statistics and description of American society in 2015 are frightening in their clarity, while the percentages and numbers of technology overuse and distraction are increasing. From his position at The Grove School, Moudry describes a path to creating a community-informed technology policy that is aligned with the school’s mission, vision, and values and serves to improve communications and cooperation models for managing a farm. I was born in the 1970s and grew up in the television, cable, and VCR era. I watched a lot of television and played many hours of home video games on the early game systems and computers. I also attended a computer camp, which I promptly left in the middle of the first morning crying because the technical side of computers did not intuitively make sense to me. I am not a luddite, but I don’t really use social media and my online life is purposefully limited or ignored. I also like to poke fun at the personal technology and online Ben Moudry is the head of school at The Grove School in Redlands, CA. He holds an AMI Primary Diploma, the certificate from the AMI Montessori Orientation to Adolescent Studies, a BA in sociology, and an M.Ed.

In the early days of personal computers, creative minds drawn to the new medium explored a variety of approaches to learning games, ranging from behaviorist drill-and-practice exercises, to open- ended environments suitable for either exploration or construction. Early practitioners were inventing new forms, and even the fundamentally limited drill- and-practice games were infused with a measure of creative energy and humor. For users of these early products, each new title represented another interesting step into unknown territory. The CD ROM Era These products were first delivered on floppy disks and marketed alongside pure entertainment games in the few computer stores of the time. By the early 90’s the adoption of compact disk (CD) drives, and improved processing speeds led to a flowering of products with increasingly rich art, animation and more sophisticated computational possibilities.
