------- Call for Papers for RPTEL Special Issue -----------

Special Issue on Practical Applications of Mobile and Internet Educational Games in Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning (http://www.apsce.net/RPTEL_CfP.aspx)

Commercial games, especially Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs) such as World of Warcraft and EverQuest are very popular nowadays. These types of games not only have fantasy interfaces and rich storylines, but they also give the players a lot of power to control what they want to do in the game world. This freedom of choice allows players to do what they want when they want, aligning well with the constructivist paradigm of learning. This opens up a host of possibilities for using these game approaches in education to potentially improve learner’s learning experience and performance.

This special issue focuses on sharing experiences and innovations in theoretical and conceptual issues related to the development of practical mobile and internet-based educational games. The aim is to provide readers with evidences and experiments that account for learners' experiences and perceptions related to knowledge and concepts acquisition through game approaches in various disciplines and domains.
