From Paper to Online: Digitizing Card Based Co-creation of Games for Privacy Education

Abstract

Education is rapidly evolving from co-located settings to remote and online learning. However, many proven educational tools are designed for collaborative, co-located classroom work. Effective sketching and ideating tools, such as card-based workshop tools, cannot be applied in remote teaching.This paper explores how the paper-based card and playboard metaphor can be digitized for remote student co-creation via video call sessions. Therefore, a card-based toolkit for co-creating educational games is transformed into a digital representation for remote application. In a between-subject trial with two university student groups (n = 61), it is investigated how users perceive ideation/balancing support and applicability of the technology-enhanced card toolset compared to the paper-based variant. Both groups thereby created an analytic game concept for privacy education.The results remarkably revealed that remote co-creation using the technology-enhanced card and playboard in video call sessions was perceived as significantly more supportive for ideation and game concept balancing. Students also felt more confident to apply the digitized card toolset independently while being more satisfied with their created game concepts. The designed educational game concepts showed comparable patterns between the groups and disclosed the students’ preferences on how games for privacy education should be designed and when and where they would like to play them. Conclusively, design implications for digital card ideation toolsets were synthesized from the findings.

AI-deation: When the Teacher is a Transformer in Role-Playing to create Privacy Decision Serious Games

“…A SG played to create other SGs is also referred to by some game studies scholars as Meta Serious Game [29]. The CGF is built on an action-oriented conception of the theory of affordances [30], [31] and exists in evaluated paper-based [11] and digital instances [12], [13].…”

“…Considering the perspectives of the different stakeholders and engaging them in a roleplaying co-design activity can help to create such a balanced SG while offering it as a game that can provide sustainability during a project's developing research process [11], [12], [13]. It has been shown that a SG can bring together experts and novices and enable them to discuss about underlying domain challenges [6].…”
