Het primaire doel is om een lastig onderwerp op een didactische wijze over te brengen. Het toegevoegde fun-element is bijzaak, echter dient wel als de smeerolie, of anders gezegd de melk bij de Brinta. Zo heeft <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/en\/\">Digital Rocks<\/a> bijvoorbeeld de Serious Game <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/en\/portfolio-item\/escape-to-the-future\/\">\u201cEscape To The Future\u201d<\/a> ontwikkeld voor een gemeente. Deze game is een escape-room waarin de deelnemers binnen een uur moeten zien te ontsnappen\u2026.naar de toekomst. Het thema waar de betreffende gemeente mee worstelde was \u2018Future Work Skills\u2019. Welke combinaties van kennis en vaardigheden zien wij de komende 10 jaar op ons afkomen? Wat betekent dit voor de skills van onze mensen? En hoe kunnen we hier nu al op anticiperen? In deze serious game wordt dit vraagstuk in een luchtige spelvorm ge\u00efntroduceerd aan te deelnemers. Het doel is om voldoende awareness te cre\u00ebren ten aanzien van het onderwerp; \u201cOh, die Future Work Skills die gaan ook over mij! Goh, laat ik daar eens over gaan nadenken\u201d, zou een typische reactie van een deelnemer kunnen zijn na afloop.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:gallery {\"ids\":[56,60]} --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped\">\n<ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\">\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\n<figure><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2322 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-480x360.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-id=\"56\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/mael-pavageau-513634-unsplash-scaled-1-2.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/premitheme.com\/rouben\/light\/portfolio-item\/imodazzle\/mael-pavageau-513634-unsplash\/\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-480x360.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-1366x1025.jpeg 1366w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-1600x1200.jpeg 1600w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_3716-1920x1440.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2323 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-480x281.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"281\" data-id=\"60\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/vladimir-zachoval-JkZDT1B3jWs-unsplash-2-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/premitheme.com\/rouben\/light\/portfolio-item\/imodazzle\/vladimir-zachoval-jkzdt1b3jws-unsplash\/\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-480x281.jpg 480w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-1024x600.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-768x450.jpg 768w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-1536x899.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-1366x800.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril-1600x937.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/plaatje-mega-VR-bril.jpg 1843w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\n<p><!-- \/wp:gallery --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":4} --><\/p>\n<h3>The right balance<\/h3>\n<p>Digital Rocks streeft ernaar om in de serious games die zij ontwikkelt een perfecte balans aan te brengen tussen kennis, didactiek en fun. De leerdoelen lopen als rode draad door de storyline van de serious game heen. Het is belangrijk dat deze\u00a0 leerdoelen goed ge\u00efntegreerd worden in de verschillende game-elementen van de game, zodat een coherente leeromgeving ontstaat waarin kennis en vaardigheden kunnen worden ge\u00efntroduceerd.<\/p>\n<p>In these serious games, something is conveyed or practiced in a challenging way by adding fun-game elements. The actual situation is replicated as realistically as possible. This could be in the form of a video game, role play or simulation. The participant can take risks and make mistakes in a safe learning environment because the effect of their actions are fictitious. The games are practice-orientated and by adding specific game elements something is learned or transferred in a challenging way.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8216;Serious game&#8217; versus &#8216;gamification&#8217;<\/h3>\n<p>Serious games and gamification are sometimes confused. The main difference is that a serious game is a complete game of a simulated reality. Example: escape from an escape room with groups of 6. Gamification adds game elements to an existing reality. For example: every morning when the employee logs into the system, figures or questions appear that must be eradicated.<\/p>\n<p>Kom eens kijken bij de <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/en\/our-games\/\">serious games van Digital Rocks<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalrocks.eu\/en\/trailer\/\">Of bekijk hier de TRAILER <\/a>van \u00e9\u00e9n van onze succesnummers The Bridge.<\/p>\n<p>We are Digital Rocks.
