Although a great deal of media attention has been given to the negative effects of playing video games, relatively less attention has been paid to the positive effects of engaging in this activity. Video games in health care provide ample examples of innovative ways to use existing commercial games for health improvement or surgical training. Tailor-made games help patients be more adherent to treatment regimens and train doctors how to manage patients in different clinical situations. In this review, examples in the scientific literature of commercially available and tailor-made games used for education and training with patients and medical students and doctors are summarized. There is a history of using video games with patients from the early days of gaming in the 1980s, and this has evolved into a focus on making tailor-made games for different disease groups, which have been evaluated in scientific trials more recently. Commercial video games have been of interest regarding their impact on surgical skill. More recently, some basic computer games have been developed and evaluated that train doctors in clinical skills. The studies presented in this article represent a body of work outlining positive effects of playing video games in the area of health care.

“…In this case, while the students are trying to obtain a higher score by choosing the best mining conditions, at the same time they can learn the effects of the mining parameters on the mining economy. Game-based learning is very interesting area in computer-aided education and there are several examples in the literature about game-based education [33,34].…”

In this paper, new visual courseware for surface mining education is described. It has been developed to help and support the lecturer when teaching and as a self-study tool for students in learning surface mining methods. The software enables the constructors, students and engineers to analyze whole mining and economical aspects of surface mining methods and is fully implemented using graphical user interface technology. ß

“…Simulation gamebased learning is an extension of the problem-based learning paradigm, having all its inherent characteristics plus some additional advantages". Simulation games have been applied in several education domains such as architecture [53], business ethics [54], child development [55], interviewing skills [56], and medical [57], [58].…”

Abstract-We are in a time where trends and ICTs are capable of leading important educational changes and allowing an advance in flexible teaching environments, through innovation and collaboration between educational institutions. Teachers have a large number of technologies to use as an ally in the classroom, such as software agents in the teaching-learning process. The objective of this article is to make known the educational module Student Play that allows to establish interactive games with students to educate in values through conversational agents, and that is embedded in a web tool called Agent SocialMetric.
