Different studies showed that VR increases the engagement and motivation of students by creating an interactive environment and provides deeper learning. On the other hand, Precedents in architecture are the first and the most important step toward architectural education. One needs to study these precedents and store them in the experiential/episodic memory. Visiting precedents is more beneficial than conventional ways of studying them such as hand sketching but it is costly and not available to all students. Therefore, we believe that the VR technology can take the place of visiting precedents since it resembles the precedents exactly and offers a better, cheaper and easier way for accumulating highly specific architectural knowledge than a local visit due to providing architectural interactivity. We tested our hypothesis by using Therme Vals and an HTC Vive headset among architecture students. This paper shows that VR is an advantage in architectural education because it offers cheap and easy solutions for studying precedents. Also, it motivates the students and leads to deeper learning because of the interactivity that it offers. The students were able to recognize a complex plan clearly and remember the spatial configuration.","PeriodicalId":285804,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121607259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As open forms of teaching we used blended learning, open space technology (OST) and selected elements of gamification. Game-based learning approaches posit that learners who interact with educational materials with playful and dynamic tasks will learn better. To better understand improvement of teamwork, social skills and collaboration a specific business game with a defined amount of play tokens is introduced. Within this business game all participants (n = 22) will have to form interdisciplinary project teams to manage a professional 3D-visualization task. In three subsequent project stages (concept, development and implementation) all projects are continually evaluated and the teams are appropriately rewarded with play tokens. With these play tokens every team can purchase missing know-how or hire additional workforce. The final visualization project is evaluated by specific design criteria (qualitative) and by the remaining amount of play tokens (quantitative). The concept of a business game was a visible success. Open forms of teaching, such as blended learning and open space technology promote the active acquisition of basic knowledge, technical understanding and at least increase transfer competence. A continuous and transparent evaluation makes the individual learning progress directly tangible. Students who took part in the business game reported more enjoyment in learning the 3D visualization pipeline than students from the years before. The business game induced greater interest to the students in acquiring new content more easily and quickly than in the other courses. Also their high degree of personal responsibility led to outstanding new ideas and their own initiatives.","PeriodicalId":285804,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128357928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mastering this process increases one's quality of life as well as one's life expectancy. Since the 1990s, video games have been successfully informing diabetic children about the impacts of dietary habits or providing assistance by logging, visualising and rewarding a balanced insulin level. In the long list of diabetes-related games, some design choices frequently re-occur: (1) The player's identification with the game's protagonist whose metabolism needs to be balanced, (2) the aforementioned log-and-reward mechanism that rewards the player's own compliance with insulin medication and proper diet with game-related bonuses, and (3) a focus on the biochemical basics of the disease. We have investigated numerous game titles and several reviews on diabetes-related games, but could not identify a single game that incorporated all three core mechanics. For this reason, we propose a game design concept that merges these mechanics but, despite these interwoven goals, remains accessible for kids.","PeriodicalId":285804,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129422252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their range of application can be even further extended by the use of virtual reality (VR) technology, which allows the realistic representation of interactive contents. Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy (VRET) is a very promising novel use case for the development of serious games. Held in a virtual environment (VE) adaptive to the needs of the patient, this form of therapy can outperform traditional realworld measures [2], [3]. One of its major success factors is the engagement of the patient, which can be increased by an immersive gaming experience. We show a demonstrator of VRET application for a fire-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In this demonstrator, features to support actively guided VR experiences are improved on, focusing on the interactive adaptivity of the VE.","PeriodicalId":285804,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131175992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents social-aware navigation for crowds in serious games. It enables a virtual character to join a group or navigate to a goal position through a crowd with static and dynamic group formations in a safe and socially acceptable way. The social-aware space is modeled in order to produce a speed map used by a fast marching method to find the fastest path to the goal position. We evaluate the method on a simulated scenario and public crowd datasets. Initial results show that social-aware navigation is capable of driving a virtual character to join a group or navigate to the goal in a realistic way while considering social norms and interactions.","PeriodicalId":285804,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129862476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
