“…Examining the relationship between visual components and other game components (e.g., audio, mechanics, controllers, etc.) 7 (Alexiou et al, 2020), (Poullis et al, 2019, (Kapralos et al, 2017), (Rowe et al, 2017), (Cheng et al, 2016), (Fuchs et al, 2016, (Rojas, 2014) In general, the most common subject of examination is ways to improve the visual representation in SGs with 19 papers, through evaluating visual representations for how to affect engagement or learning objectives better. The method to improve the visual design pipeline in SGs was also a common research topic with seven papers.…”

“…For example, Rojas (2014) suggests that contextual sound cues influence visual fidelity perception and perception of visual fidelity increases with contextual sound cues. Kapralos et al (2017) reported that sound could directly affect visual fidelity perception and task performance within a virtual environment. Other researchers, like Alexiou et al (2020), found that visual aesthetics positively affect learning outcomes when they are effectively combined with other narrative components.…”

The visuals of a game is a crucial element when it comes to providing good player experiences. Visuals are also an incredibly complex subject in a game context since different modes of visual representation can be more or less "appropriate" for different settings. For example, while one can look at photo-realism as an impressive feature of a game due to its technical complexity and functionally accurate representation of real-world objects, it might still not be a fitting choice for different audiences, or for different pedagogical strategies. Serious game research seldom focuses on understanding the design of these components or their applicability to different types of learning, and it more often focuses on games' mechanics and how well they manage to capture subject matter content while still being engaging. The aim of this paper is to explore the gap in visual communication research, describing what studies tend to focus on providing some valuable context. This review was conducted on papers that dealt with visual aspects of serious games. The results show that visual communication is rarely addressed in serious game development research. Future research would benefit from taking visual communication in detail to facilitate the effectiveness of serious games.

“…However, one must also consider audio–visual (multimodal) interactions when combining audio–visual cues within virtual learning environments given that, for example, sound can have significant effects on performance within such environments (Cowan, Rojas, Kapralos, Moussa, & Dubrowski, 2015). Moreover, these effects are highly subjective suggesting the importance of providing some means of individualizing the user interface (Kapralos, Moussa, Collins, & Dubrowski, 2016).…”

We place collaborative student engagement in a nontraditional perspective by considering a novel, more interactive educational environment and explaining how to employ it to enhance student learning. To this end, we explore modern technological classroom enhancements as well as novel pedagogical techniques which facilitate collaborative learning. In our setup, the traditional blackboard or table is replaced by a digitally enabled interactive surface such as a smart board or a tabletop computer. The information displayed on the digital surface can be further enhanced with augmented reality views through mobile apps on student smartphones. We also discuss ways to enhance the instructional process through elements of game mechanics and outline an experimental implementation. Finally, we discuss an application of the proposed technological and pedagogical methods to human anatomy training.
