Abstract

Videogame history is not just a history of one successful technology replacing the next. It is also a history of platforms and communities that never quite made it; that struggled to make their voices heard; that aggravated against the conventions of the day; and that never enjoyed the commercial success or recognition of their major counterparts. In Minor Platforms in Videogame History, Benjamin Nicoll argues that 'minor' videogame histories are anything but insignificant. Through an analysis of transitional, decolonial, imaginary, residual, and minor videogame platforms, Nicoll highlights moments of difference and discontinuity in videogame history. From the domestication of vector graphics in the early years of videogame consoles to the 'cloning' of Japanese computer games in South Korea in the 1980s, this book explores case studies that challenge taken-for-granted approaches to videogames, platforms, and their histories.

Abstract

An examination of young people's everyday new media practices--including video-game playing, text-messaging, digital media production, and social media use. Conventional wisdom about young people's use of digital technology often equates generational identity with technology identity: today's teens seem constantly plugged in to video games, social networking sites, and text messaging. Yet there is little actual research that investigates the intricate dynamics of youths' social and recreational use of digital media. Hanging Out, Messing Around, and Geeking Out fills this gap, reporting on an ambitious three-year ethnographic investigation into how young people are living and learning with new media in varied settings--at home, in after-school programs, and in online spaces. Integrating twenty-three case studies--which include Harry Potter podcasting, video-game playing, music sharing, and online romantic breakups--in a unique collaborative authorship style, Hanging Out, Messing Around, and Geeking Out is distinctive for its combination of in-depth description of specific group dynamics with conceptual analysis.

Abstract

In The Emergence of the Digital Humanities, Steven E. Jones examines this shift in our relationship to digital technology and the ways that it has affected humanities scholarship and the academy more broadly. Based on the premise that the network is now everywhere rather than merely "out there," Jones links together seemingly disparate cultural events--the essential features of popular social media, the rise of motion-control gaming and mobile platforms, the controversy over the "gamification" of everyday life, the spatial turn, fabrication and 3D printing, and electronic publishing--and argues that cultural responses to changes in technology provide an essential context for understanding the emergence of the digital humanities as a new field of study in this millennium.

Abstract

In recent years, the methodologies of teaching have been in a process of transition. Multiple active methodologies have proliferated, with the aim of changing the concept we have had of teaching so far. These advocate for a student who plays a leading role in the process of building learning, while the teacher acts as a figure who facilitates and glimpses the paths to learning. In order to be able to carry out this type of teaching in an optimal way, it is necessary for the teaching and research community to be correctly trained in its pedagogical principles and in the tools that boost its implementation. Among these principles and tools, it is of vital importance that information and communication technologies (ICT) be adequately handled. The use of active methodologies (project-based learning, problem-based learning, service learning, flipped classroom, mobile learning, etc.) or innovative pedagogical approaches (simulation, role-playing, gamification, etc.) promotes an improvement in the motivation of students as well as their skills. This aspect is especially important in the area of mathematics, whose contents are characterized by their abstraction, thus highlighting the need for its dynamization in classrooms of different educational stages.

Abstract

Computergames staan onmiskenbaar en in toenemende mate in de belangstelling. Games zijn sinds hun ontstaan, ongeveer 40 jaar geleden, geëvolueerd van een subcultureel en "nerdy" nicheproduct naar een mainstream cultuurproduct met een breed doelpubliek. Ondanks hun ondertussen respectabele leeftijd, hun plaats in de (jeugd)cultuur en hun economische impact, kampen games echter tot op de dag van vandaag met een opvallend negatief imago. Met de regelmaat van een klok, en vaak gevoed door mediagenieke en spraakmakende incidenten, worden games en de gamecultuur in de publieke opinie en het politieke discours beladen met de zonden van Egypte. Vier Vlaamse specialisten gaan in op de effecten van games en op de mogelijkheid die ze bieden voor het creëren van nieuwe sociale netwerken en educatieve kansen. In een eerste deel onderzoeken de auteurs of de morele paniek rond games in de media gefundeerd is. Vervolgens wordt dieper ingegaan op de 'bijzondere' aantrekkingskracht die games kunnen uitoefenen, en op de rol die ze kunnen spelen bij het ontstaan van nieuwe gemeenschappen en netwerken. Daarnaast besteden de auteurs uitvoerig aandacht aan de verschillende omgevingen waarbinnen het gamen plaatsvindt, aan de gevaren van online gamen en aan de maatregelen door de overheid. Het derde deel is gewijd aan computergames in educatie en onderwijs. Het medium van de videogames wordt hier onder meer gesitueerd binnen recente ontwikkelingen rond geletterdheden. Een interessant boek, waaruit blijkt dat er een grote behoefte is aan een grootschalig onderzoek naar het gamen als maatschappelijk feit en cultureel fenomeen. Het boek wordt besloten met verwijzingen naar wetenschappelijke literatuur, websites en de vigerende Belgische wetgeving
