With the rapidly aging population and the rising number of people living with dementia (PLWD), there is an urgent need for programming and activities that can promote the health and wellbeing of PLWD. Due to staffing and budgetary constraints, there is considerable interest in using technology to support this effort. Serious games for dementia have become a very active research area. However, much of the work is being done without a strong theoretical basis. We incorporate a Montessori approach with highly tactile interactions. We have developed a person-centered design framework for serious games for dementia with initial design recommendations. This framework has the potential to facilitate future strategic design and development in the field of serious games for dementia.

“…Moeller and Kyvsgaard Hansen [3] investigate new analog (not digital) serious games and learning tools in the Danish market, with a focus on the drivers and influencing factors during their development and the effort of making a business out of the serious games. Besides from uncovering some of the basic motivations to design and develop serious games, the paperwhich is based on close interaction and semi-structured interviews with serious game developers -shows how the game developers' interaction with the end-users and their different business strategies, influences the way the game is developed.…”

A couple of months ago, we were in Rome for the fourth edition of the Game and Learning Alliance – Gala Conf 2015 (http://www.galaconf.org). The conference has been a success both for number of participants and for quality of the presented works, leading to interesting discussions and exchanges.Best papers have been selected and authors are now preparing the extended versions of their works, that will be reviewed for an upcoming special issue on the International Journal of Serious Games.In a ceremony during the conference, best serious games were awarded the SGS awards, both in the category business and academy.Workshops, particularly in the fields of healthcare, intelligent transportation and management, have revealed interesting trends, especially in the mentioned application fields.During the conference, the annual general assembly of the Serious Games Society was held. Among other decisions, the assembly selected the venue for Gala Conf 2016, that will take place in Utrecht, the Netetherlands, on December 5-7, 2016. Also, in collaboration with the Laval University, SGS is organizing Gala Quebec, October 11-12 2016 in Ville de Quebec, Canada.

Malaysian society, including students who use technology in their daily lives, have made technology a necessity. Among the media technologies that have a place in students’ hearts are serious games, convey information, emphasizing learning and not entertainment. A serious game is capable of creating self-directed active learning. In this study, the authors analyzed the key features of serious games that encourage learning in an academic environment. However, not many software specializes in problems for slow-reading students. This study aims to establish the elements used in in-game application software and the approaches and strategies used to develop a serious game design conceptual model for such students based on the acquired elements. The elements were obtained through two methods, i.e., systematic literature review and preliminary studies. This work identifies 48 potential studies in 2009-2020, using various well-known digital libraries. The analysis of the selected documents applying the inclusion criteria resulted in 12 articles used to design serious games. This study integrates brain-based learning strategies into game and learning components. This serious game conceptual model expects to provide a meaningful learning experience for those children who are left behind to achieve their learning goals and increase their motivation to stay excited in learning.
