Childrens Educational PC Games
The main reason for inclusion in the top 10 was the impact a game had on the instructional gaming field. A few of these are getting rather long in the tooth so far as games go, yet their impact is continuing to be felt in educational research that was foundational or continues to be revealed. On the other hand, new titles are coming out all the time and this list may change in the future.
The criteria for inclusion were simple. The game must be free and preferably available on the net. Some of the games are modifications of existing games (often Neverwinter Nights). So , mods are free but to run them you'll need to purchase the first engine. But that's a minor quibble since they're free if you already own the engine.
I am enthusiastic about other titles, so if you have a favorite that is not on the list, drop me an e-mail and make sure I know about it. Ultimately, I also included the learning objectives, host URLs, and my comments on the games. Therefore give these educational games a look-see, and consider using them in a study room or other formal learning situation. And make sure I know about it if you do.
1. Revolution
Type: Alteration of Neverwinter Nights Gold
Learning Objective: Experience historical inducements for the American Revolution from the grassroots level.
Comment: This is the game that started people talking about seriously using the modifiable Neverwinter Nights engine for academic purposes. A few papers were released on this game, targeting its interactive way of teaching scholars about the American Revolution. It was perhaps best introduced to academics in a generally read article by Joel Foreman over at George Mason in the 1st issue of Revolutionize.
2. Re-Mission
Type: Executable
Learning Objective: Understand cancer better and generate a positive attitude towards defeating it.
Comment: It is a huge download, but really worth the wait. The game from HopeLab is aimed at teaching young cancer patients about the disease and providing chances to boost understanding in a positive environment. It offers the latest in instructional videogame design, with backing from a well-funded sponsor. Also available in Spanish and French, and can be ordered for free on CD by mail.
3. Stream Town
Type: Multi-user Virtual Environment
Learning Objective: Develop an appreciation of the systematic methodology through investigation and teamwork, as well as an appreciation of history and environmental issues.
Comment: One of the two massive NSF projects for instructional gaming on this list, with a few years of analysis following its progress. This Harvard product is unreservedly available to schools, but only on disc through the post. The team favors sending it to teachers wishing to employ the program in science classes. Chris Dede fronted the project.
4. Search Atlantis
Type: Multi-user Virtual Environment
Learning Objective: Help students understand social studies, green concerns, current events, and scientific standards.
Comment: Though this Indiana Varsity project offers a guest area where interested parties can explore the Search Atlantis universe, the NSF-funded project needs teachers contact the team before allowing complete access. Several thousand participators have joined QA, and research is ongoing. Sasha Barab spearheaded the project
5. Arden
Type: Alteration of Neverwinter Nights Diamond
Learning Objective: Achieve an appreciation of Shakespearean authorship and Elizabethan Britain.
Comment: As a part of the Major Worlds Initiative over at Indiana University, Arden was at first funded by the MacArthur Foundation. Exec is Edward Castronova, whose book Synthesised Worlds covers lots of the business and social problems in MMOs. Castronova has professed that Arden is not very exciting to everyday game-players (no monsters to slay). Nevertheless the idea of exploring Shakespeare's world should prove interesting to English majors and other backers of the Bard's work.
6. The History Canada Game
Type: Alteration of Civilization III
Learning Objective: Understand social forces surrounding Canadian history since 1534.
Comment: O Canada! Down here south of the border, we barely know ye! But , an initiative funded by Canada's Nationwide History Society and The Historica Foundation aims to change that, for Canadians as well as those outside her borders.
7. America's Armed forces
Type: Executable
Learning Objectives: Teamwork, and a larger experience of US army expectations for sign ups.
Comment: Critics. Decry this free videogame as a recruiting tool for the military. The Army shrugs its collective shoulders and asserts, "So?" Actually , America's Military has many fans with no military expectancies. One Ph.D. Applicant I work with is a self-described "America's Army widow." Almost 3 gigs for the full version; its free nature ensures many advocates for many years to come.
8. Food Force
Type: Executable
Learning Objectives: Understand world hunger and efforts to lessen it.
