One of our “areas of interest” is video games, due to their increasing presence and weight in the visual culture of children and young people, because they represent a real use of “new” technologies, because of the enormous volume of business they generate within the cultural industries, because of the great creative potential they contain and, in some cases, make effective… in short, for a lot of things that we already explored incipiently in the JustPlayIt<\/a> workshops in Can Felipa and on which we hope to return soon. A friend (thanks Raquel) has passed us the program of this summer course at the UB<\/g>, coordinated by Bego\u00f1a Gros Salvat<\/g>; after the link we paste the program as is (in Catalan); the thing, although very academic, seems interesting because video games are presented as a de facto tool for hypermedia literacy of new generations and as a new form of technologically mediated socialization, however, the thing sounds less interesting when we begin to understand video games as an educational instrument, in normalized terms. We’ll have to see. <\/p>\n

COURSE TITLE
\nVideo games and learning: narratives, simulations and interactions<\/p>\n

COORDINATION
\nBego\u00f1a Gros Salvat, tenured professor of the Institute of Educational Sciences of the University of Barcelona.<\/p>\n

CONTENT<\/p>\n

In today’s society, children and young people maintain an intense relationship with the digital world through the use of video games. The fundamental objective of this course is to study the learning that players make in order to analyze the role of digital play in technological innovation, new communicative forms and training. The course deals with video games from points of view as diverse as the following: the new forms of literacy represented by video games based on the hypermedia narrative they use; the new forms of socialization that this medium creates in users through connection spaces and online play; the educational use that can be made of it from different training areas (school, leisure activities or training in the company, among others), and the industry of this product, and a state of the question is presented. <\/p>\n
