“…One consequence has been widespread gamification resulting in many different types of serious games [23], for example to train marine staff [2], treat cockroach phobia [3], overcome negative emotions [24], manage large-scale investment resources [12], rediscover cultural heritage [9] and help cancer patients make decisions about their health [16]. One consequence of this trend is not to make games that are better and more immersive versions of reality, but to make the world a better and more immersive reality [19].…”

We consider the integration of creative approaches to problem solving into pervasive games is a natural extension of play for creative thinkingone that can innovatively drive technology-led changes to the facilitation of creative thinking and pose a new genre in serious gaming for learning. This paper presents an initial proposal of a new model of creative game-base learning (CGBL), which emerged through mapping of established characteristics of climates that encourage creativity and innovation to characteristics of effective serious games.

“…Computer games designed for training purposes should integrate educational content with multimedia while providing pleasant interface [19].

Abstract-Electronic Health Record (EHR) is a valuable asset of every healthcare and it needs to be protected. Human errors are recognized as the major information security threats to EHR systems. Employees who interact with EHR systems should be trained about the risks and hazards related to information security. However, there are limited studies regarding the effectiveness of training programs. The aim of this paper is to propose a framework that provides guidelines for healthcare organizations to select an effective information security training delivery method. In addition, this paper proposes a guideline to develop information security content for awareness training programs. Lastly, this study attempts to implement the proposed framework in a selected healthcare for evaluation. Hence, a serious game is developed as a training method to deliver information security content for the selected healthcare. An effective training program raises employees' awareness toward information security with a long-term impact. It helps to gradually change employees' behavior over time by reducing their negligence towards secure utilization of healthcare EHR systems.

“…Indeed, McGonigal [28] questioned how games can change how people act and think in their real lives, a challenge that triggered a wave of new games for personal and social change and creating positive impacts. One consequence has been widespread gamification resulting in many different types of serious games [39], for example to train marine staff [3], treat cockroach phobia [4], overcome negative emotions [40], manage large-scale investment resources [18], rediscover cultural heritage [14] and help cancer patients make decisions about their health [25].…”

This is the unspecified version of the paper.This version of the publication may differ from the final published version. Permanent repository link ABSTRACTThis paper advocates the use of computer-based serious games as a form of creativity support tool. Whilst the use of serious games has grown considerably in recent years, support for players to think creatively is often implicit in the game, and does not exploit the wide range of creativity techniques and software tools available. This paper makes the case for explicit creativity support in serious games, explores how implicit creativity support can be delivered in game play, and extends one reported model of serious game play with activities in which players deploy different forms of supported creative thinking. The model is then applied to inform 2 versions of a serious game developed to train carers in creativity techniques to deliver more personcentered care to people with dementia. Each version of the game was delivered as a prototype to support playtesting of the game and its effect on carer training.
