“…Then, they evolved alongside the rapid expansion of other types of games and new devices such as smartphones, tablets, and various consoles. For serious games, different definitions have been presented by different authors [4]- [13]- [19], [20], [21], [22]. In summarizing the definitions, it can be argued that the term "serious game" was introduced by Abt [19], and it is considered a kind of digital game with different purposes, which primarily focuses on learning and improving the skills and performance of learners rather than pure entertainment, and ultimately provide many opportunities to connect training to learners' da ily life experiences in a variety of markets.…”

“…Parallel to quantitative development and increasing demand, serious games have been accompanied by product and research in various fields such as military [10], health [11], education [12], and business [13], where addressing educational quality and components has become the main concern of investors, developers, and researchers. A concern that has been investigated in several studies [e.g., 14-15-16], but each of them alone has not been able to cover all factors and needs a comprehensive summary and classification.…”

In recent decades, at the same time as the quantitative growth in the industry of serious games, its quality has also been the focus of investors, researchers, and developers. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to design a framework and validate a tool for evaluating the educational quality of serious games. (i.e., a questionnaire). Evaluation frameworks and questionnaires are fundamental tools for designing and developing serious games. The method of this research was meta-synthesis with a mixed approach. Based on this, 5807 articles were identified during the years 1995 to 2021, and finally, 29 articles were selected for analysis. By analyzing these articles, basic dimensions, components, and indicators were extracted and turned into an evaluation tool using thematic analysis with the purpose of validation. First, the content validity of this tool was obtained by purposive sampling technique with the participation of 30 serious game experts. Then, for the validity of the constructs, a sample equal to the community was assumed, and the tool was sent to the members of the National Computer Games Foundation, and 537 people participated in completing the tool. Finally, the data were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis. The findings of first and second-order factor analysis confirmed all dimensions, components, and indicators of the tool with a factor load (above 0.40) and a significant coefficient (above 1.96). Therefore, this meta-synthesis led to the design of the framework and the validation of the educational quality evaluation tool of serious games with 4 dimensions, 25 components, and 138 indicators. We argue that the proposed framework and tool are able to evaluate the educational quality of a serious game and cover its design project end to end. We thus propose them as a suitable resource for researchers and developers of serious games.

“…Ho Chi Minh once said: "There is nothing difficult if you are resilient enough; you can dig up the mountains and backfill the sea if you have strong will. ", The youth must be educated to love their homeland, their country, their people and socialism, because that is the origin of the solid mental motivation which evokes national pride and self-esteem as well as the determination to not give in and to be resilient in the love for the homeland (Falkenberg & Noyes, 2010;Tanner et al, 2022). From which, students will have a sense of self-improvement to own their lives, to build and preserve the good lifestyle of Vietnamese people in the new era.…”

Comprehensive human development is an important content in Ho Chi Minh's thought on human beings. "To reap a return in ten years, plant trees. To reap a return in 100, cultivate the people" (Minhd, 2011). A comprehensive person is someone who has both virtue and talent, of which virtue is the root. Virtue is morality, but unlike conservative morality which aims at personal glory, the new and great morality serves the common interest of the communist party, the people and mankind. The basic requirements of that morality are being loyal to the country and faithful to the people, loving people, being diligent, thrifty, honest, righteous and selfless, and having proletarian international spirit. Talent means a person's capability to fulfill assigned tasks, which is demonstrated through continuous learning and improving of academic, scientific, technical and theoretical qualifications (Minhb, 2011). Vietnam is being strongly influenced by the trend of international integration with many complicated changes in the society. In the face of manifestations of degradation in morality and lifestyle seen in students, moral education for Vietnamese students becomes even more important and necessary.

“…Educational games have been used in a range of disciplines, and meta-analyses have shown positive effects of educational games on cognitive, affective or motivational skills [9,10]. In particular, some studies suggest that games could be used to foster problemsolving and critical thinking skills [11] or to develop moral sensitivity [12]. However, prior research also shows that, to achieve ethics education goals, games should implement specific strategies such as providing "ethical choices and decisionmaking, which have an effect on the game play," or integrating personal reflection through the use of diaries or other devices [13].…”

The past few decades have seen important efforts to introduce more ethics into engineering education programs around the world, while adapting to the evolution of ethical concerns, notably in relation to digital technology and artificial intelligence. Even if pedagogical approaches based on the use of case studies or code of ethics remain among the most popular, other less well known techniques such as gamebased approaches have also been identified as effective. The goal of this workshop is to offer participants an opportunity to explore how games can be used as learning experiences to develop students’ ethical knowledge and skills. Participants will first get to play an online game which focuses on ethical issues in the domain of artificial intelligence, before reflecting on their experience and discussing the potential of game-based approaches for engineering ethics education.
