Game Based Learning Research

Satire as only South Park can accomplish -- I found the "Blizzard Board" scene especially funny. A colleague and I were discussing yesterday if a Second Life avatar could come down with the plague. The end of the world. of warcraft. :)

CU is negotiating to join the MOOC community

"It's a cooperative team survival game. Players become crew members of a small spaceship scanning dangerous sectors of galaxy. The missions last just 10 real-time minutes (hyperspace jump, sector scan, hyperspace jump back) and the only task the players have is to protect their ship. On 2 CDs (or Scenario cards if you don't have a CD player available) are ten minute long soundtracks that represent central computer announcements about the presence of various threats. These vary from space battleships and interceptors to different interstellar monsters and abominations, asteroids or even intruders and malfunctions on the spaceship. Players have to agree who will take care of which task and coordinate their actions (moving around the ship, firing weapons, distributing energy, using battlebots to deal with intruders, launching guided missiles, etc.) in real time to defend the ship. Only a well-working team can survive 10 minutes and make the jump back to safety."

Starting to learn a cooperative board game.

Explanation of the game

AMAZING I CAN'T WAIT, a mix of reality and alternate reality, it is of course the evolution of games. ! Pac-Man on Steroids. Count me in, the answer to the complaint that all MMORPGers do is sit at a computer! I am anxious for this game to launch. I would be a player.
