The book introduces techniques to improve the effectiveness of serious games in relation to cognition and motivation. These techniques include ways to improve motivation, collaboration, reflection, and the integration of gameplay into various contexts. The contributing authors expand upon this broad range of techniques, show recent empirical research on each of these techniques that discuss their promise and effectiveness, then present general implications or guidelines that the techniques bring forth. They then suggest how serious games can be improved by implementing the respective technique into a particular game.

Unternehmenssoftware als Forschungsfeld ökonomischer Bildung

Die Studie von Bettina Schneider liefert wertvolle Einblicke in den Aufbau eines Verständnisses zu ERP- (Enterprise-Resource-Planning) Systemen. Eine Besonderheit liegt in der ganzheitlichen Betrachtungsweise, die Lernende und Experten mit unterschiedlichen Erfahrungshintergründen in die Untersuchungen einbezieht. Die Autorin verwendet ein Forschungsdesign, welches die Theorien der Phänomenographie und des Conceptual Change innovativ miteinander vereint. Die Ausarbeitungen münden in einen Ergebnisraum mit fünf Stufen, die sich jeweils durch eine spezifische Kombination von Vorstellungen zu ERP-Systemen herausbilden. Drei der insgesamt fünf Verständnisebenen stellen Schwellenkonzepte mit transformierender Wirkung dar. Im Fokus des Buches steht die Erarbeitung sowie Validierung des Entwicklungsmodells. Darüber hinaus wird ein auf den Studienergebnissen aufbauendes Lehrkonzept für ERP-Systeme skizziert. ​
