Visit our website at http://games.commons.gc.cuny.edu (or by clicking the Visit Blog link on the left).

We connect educators from every campus and discipline at CUNY who are interested in games, simulations, and other forms of interactive teaching. We seek to facilitate the pedagogical uses of both digital and non-digital games, improve student success, and encourage research and scholarship in the developing field of games-based learning.

    Serious Game Development: Games for skill assessment and remediation in children with ASD
    Deborah Sturm (Computer Science), Betram Ploog (Psychology), Patricia Brooks (Psychology)

    We will discuss two games for the iPad designed for children on the autism spectrum. One game measures selective attention to emotions; the second game implements a Serial Reaction Time (SRT) task. Both games were developed collaboratively with members of the Psychology and Computer Science Departments together with two undergraduate Computer Science students.
    This event is under the auspices of the Faculty Interest Group (FIG) on Gaming and Pedagogy

    This event is scheduled as part of the Special Events Series for Fall 2012 at the Faculty Center for Professional Development. All full-time, part-time, and retired faculty are invited to join us in the Library 1L-203,
    Thursday, September 27 from 2: 45 -4:00 in 1L-203.
