Pierre Corbeil replied to Brandon Carson's discussion What really is Immersive Learning? in the group Game Design Brainstorming"I have only seen the term used for language learning. It means that the student is in an environment where he must use the language for all activities, from the hot and cold water taps - C et F - to the actual classes to interactions with the other…"

Pierre Corbeil replied to Richard Dine's discussion Game to train to a policy, and encourage employee/manager interaction in the group Game Design Brainstorming"There are quite a few MMOG, many of them free, or inexpensive. You might define some desirable characteristics, such as team work, the importance of sharing documents, the dangers of improper procedure, and see if there is not one or more that…"
Pierre Corbeil replied to Richard Dine's discussion Game to train to a policy, and encourage employee/manager interaction in the group Game Design Brainstorming"If a game sticks closely to the specialty of the players (e.g., an accounting game for accountants), it is natural for them to folow their routine and habits. When the objective is to stimulate awareness of what is the regular environment, I suggest…"
Pierre Corbeil replied to Richard Dine's discussion Game to train to a policy, and encourage employee/manager interaction in the group Game Design Brainstorming"You may need to back up a bit and start from the beginning. First, a game is a poor tool to push a particular message (what I call the Trap of the right answer). A game as a learning tool is interesting in that it gives an opportunity to test…"

Louise Eisenbrey replied to Pierre Corbeil's discussion Older games are better because... in the group Ancestors"I don't think that individual players need to have their own token. I do believe that there needs to be a visual way of marking progress for the players or teams of players - so all can see."
Pierre Corbeil replied to Pierre Corbeil's discussion Older games are better because... in the group Ancestors"In your experience, is it helpful to for the players to have actual physical gaming objects or tokens to manipulate ?"
Louise Eisenbrey replied to Pierre Corbeil's discussion Older games are better because... in the group Ancestors"Glad you brought this topic up. I do agree that the 'face to face' games are more engaging. The full dimension-experience can draw in more participants - those with different likes and levels of gaming experience. I think…"
Pierre Corbeil replied to Pierre Corbeil's discussion Older games are better because... in the group Ancestors"Face-to-face is a very thoughtful description, and your observation very pertinent. One of my friends (a French friend) uses the term, présenciel, from présence, and logiciel, the French for software.
Do I have your permission to quote…"
Scott Nicholson replied to Pierre Corbeil's discussion Older games are better because... in the group Ancestors"I prefer to call them "face to face" games, having also tried out "tabletop" and "analog" games.

Richard Powers said… - Bonjour Pierre,
I'm glad to belong to the ancestors group. Do you plan to attend the NASAGA conference? I've suggested Fred Goodman for a keynote speaker and also recommended him for an Ifill-Raynolds award. I considered Fred one of the founders of NASAGA and am embarrassed that he's been passed over for an award for so many year. I'm guessing that only a few old timers know of Fred and the good work he's still doing in gaming. If you can support him, it would help if you seconded my recommendation. Thanks, Richard
