Abstract

In this paper we discuss the theoretical, design and evaluative underpinnings of the experiential learning context central to the design processes of the Future Delta 2.0 serious game. The game is aimed at facilitating understanding and action on local climate change. We begin with a discussion of play as it relates to designing serious games. Then we articulate the experiential learning context revealed through three interconnected design strands: meaningful learning objectives -- how the learning is structured; situatedness -- where the learning takes place, geographically and culturally; learning through action -- how learning happens through play. We introduce the experiential learning context of Future Delta 2.0, a virtual 3D game. The game reaches across art, science and technology to communicate a community-based local vision of climate change challenges and solutions in Delta, British Columbia. Finally, we discuss the design, evaluation methods and analysis of the Future Delta 2.0 experiential learning context. Our conclusion is that the experiential learning context may contribute theoretically and practically to the research and design of 3D serious games.

  • ML can help create personalized educational tools for climate learning, for instance by generating images of potential future impacts of extreme weather events based on a learner's address or by anchoring learning in a digital replica of their real-life location.

    “In these contexts, ML can help create personalized educational tools, for instance by generating images of potential future impacts of extreme weather events based on a learner's address [716] or by anchoring an individual's learning experience in a digital replica of their real-life location and allowing them to explore the way that climate change will impact a specific location [28].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
