Title
Towards An Effective Modelling And Development Of Educational Games With Subject-Matter: A Multidomain Framework
Abstract
Game-based learning systems or educational games have highly influenced the learning industry over the past decade. The modeling and development of an effective educational game has been a constant challenge for game developers in understanding the relationships between game play ( rules and regulations), game environment, learning theories, and the subject-matter ( learner's achievement to achieve the objective of subject content) embedded in the educational game. Thus, the authors have proposed a multi-domain framework to conceptualize the elements with extracted implicit relationships through a systematic literature review. These relationships are verified through qualitative interviews with eight ( 8) game-based learning experts to validate the relationships. This paper presents eleven ( 11) implicit relationships based on subject-matter domain and discusses their relevancy with game environment, learning theories, and game play by applying interpretive hermeneutic approach of qualitative study. Consequently, this paper concludes eleven ( 11) explicit relationships for game developers to reflect on during the modelling and conceptualizing educational games in the development process.
