In this chapter, a competency-based approach, based on the qualifications-based learning model (QBLM), will be presented, which makes it possible to store the acquired competencies and qualifications (CQ) in a so-called CQ-profile (CQP) while playing an educational game. The game and the course are based on a didactical structural template (DST), making it possible to switch between the course and the game. Before the educational game can be played, it must be checked whether a learner has all the required CQs for the course or learning unit in which the educational game is included. Therefore, this chapter shows an approach to how the CQPs can be implemented, and the data from the CQP can be used to check course prerequisites. Finally, a prototypical implementation with its evaluation and the remaining challenges will be presented in this chapter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
