NSF Grant Aims to Bring Computer Games to College Classrooms

NSF Grant Aims to Bring Computer Games to College Classrooms










Vancouver, Wash. (PRWEB) June 15, 2007

College students studying computer science may one day be able to bring their gaming hobbies and their studies together in the classroom.

The National Science Foundation has awarded nearly $ 150,000 to Scott Wallace, assistant professor of computer science at Washington State University Vancouver, and Andrew Nierman, assistant professor of computer science at the University of Puget Sound, to develop computer game-based curricula for undergraduate computer science courses.

“Evidence suggests that computer games are helpful in retention,” said Wallace. “In the last 15 years, games have received increased attention in academia.”

Wallace’s work aims to work with instructors’ learning objectives, but use games as a vehicle to teach various software development courses.

“Computer science students today are pretty familiar with game technology,” Wallace said, “often to the extent that they know how to build their own games. We can apply this to game development courses, and also build curriculum models to apply to mainstream computer science courses from the college sophomore to graduate levels.”

The grant is for two years, and will also involve several undergraduate student assistants.

For more information about the WSU Vancouver computer science programs, visit http://www.vancouver.wsu.edu/encs/computerscience.html.

WSU Vancouver is located at 14204 N.E. Salmon Creek Ave., east of the 134th Street exit from either I-5 or I-205. WSU Vancouver offers 14 Bachelor’s degrees, nine Master’s degrees, one Doctorate degree and more than 35 fields of study. Visit us on the Web at http://www.vancouver.wsu.edu.

Breathing New Life into the Computer Game and Health Market

Posted by on February 5, 2011 1 comment

Breathing New Life into the Computer Game and Health Market










(PRWEB) July 4, 2005

It’s apparent that the use of computer games is on the increase, with more player diversification becoming obvious. According to a 2003 survey conducted by the Entertainment Software Association (http://www.theesa.com), more than one-third of computer and video game players at that time were women, whereas previously, most were male. Also, according to this survey, since 1999, the increase in computer and video game playing has increased overall, with many players now playing on mobile devices.

Computer games, whether delivered via a CD-ROM, or a Web-based Internet application, are literally popping up everywhere, delivering not only entertainment but also education. In addition, this medium is being used more often for marketing purposes of products and services, via the use of online games accessed within a Web site. The markets for educational computer games have also drastically increased, and the combination of fun and learning does seem very well received by consumers at large.

Since computer games are indeed very interactive, players get caught up in the action, accounting for the popularity of this medium. Unlike other mediums such as television and radio, computer games require input from the player (consumer), allowing the game to proceed or stop at will, and furnishing an adrenaline rush not unlike the rush felt by participation in traditional sporting events. Because of the interactivity, computer game users may retain knowledge longer making computer games promising educational tools.

A well established dietary supplement company, Integrative Research (http://www.IntegrativeResearch.com) has recently released online computer games that allow a visitor to their Web site to “zap” the evil germs that invade a body. Another game on the site combats the “evil forces” of online business scams. The “germ zapping” game is appropriately titled, “Beta Force”, and appears within the Beta Force section of the site, (http://www.betaforcegame.com). The “scam” game is titled, “Scam Away”.

Integrative Research has taken the educational experience of online game playing into the adult realm, and provides games that will educate adults about the effects of dietary supplements on overall health, as well as educate them on how to avoid being scammed when seeking an online business opportunity. Integrative Research combines these flash games with other proven marketing tools, such as online auto-responder e-mail marketing letters, e-books, banner ads, reports, etc., http://www.IntegrativeResearch.com.
