• W1499554531 abstract "The paper is an exploration of the 'magic' inherent in role-play simulations in educational contexts. It compares and analyses a range of on-line role-play simulations used in higher education in a variety of disciplines highlighting the structural design and objectives of such role-play games, and in particular, it scrutinizes the game design principles that have been employed. As part of the new generation of educational technologies the use of such role-play is steadily increasing but very few guidelines exist as to how to translate educational goals and desired outcomes into game objectives and processes. Our paper provides a few such guidelines born out of the research and experience of creating such games. Introduction: ICT and Education Innovative approaches to teaching are proliferating at academic and training institutions as the impact of information and communication Technology (ICT) becomes widespread. One approach, that of experiential learning, is particularly interesting because of the transformation ICT impose on such experience. The virtual environments made possible by ICT have enabled communicative interactions that not only transcend certain spatial and temporal limitations but have also enabled the creation of new types of spaces and potentialities attractive to business, education and the entertainment industries. For educational endeavors, the potentialities of the new spaces for learning had a number of effects, including changes to the role of the teacher and the nature of authority (Linser, Waniganayake & Wilkes 2004), the de-centering of the learning process and the separation of the learning space from the institutional space that provides learning spaces. (Linser 2004a) While teaching is still about the transference of knowledge, understanding and skills, the de- centering of the learning process, has meant that teachers have sought, and are still seeking, new pedagogic designs that would leverage the power of the new ICT and with which they can confront their shifting role in education. One particular pedagogical strategy within the experiential learning approach, the use of games, role-plays and simulations, has long been used both institutionally in formal learning (Akilli 2007) as well as in informal acquisition of social knowledge understanding and skills. Informally, from childhood to adulthood we learn about our society through various forms of games and role-plays. Indeed from a socio-psychological perspective, the conceptual understanding of social roles, their acquisition and maintenance is a critical theoretical component in understanding how we become who we are and the relations we form with the world around us. (Lynch 2007, Turner 1990, Biddle 1986, Winnicott 1980, Holland 1977, Giddens 1979, Goffman 1969, Mead 1934) However, where as modern commercial games, role-plays and simulations using ICT are rapidly becoming the entertainment industry's most lucrative product, educational use of these seems to considerably lag behind. There may be many reasons for this, both theoretical and practical, including the failure of educators to understand the structural constraints of the different media used in the games, virtual worlds and simulations they choose to use as instructional tools. (Ip 2006, Linser & Ip 2005) Fortugno and Zimmerman argue that the reason for the failure of games to take off as educational tools is to a large extent a failure of educators to understand game design and of game designers' failure to understand pedagogical" @default.
