Povzetek

Spoznali bomo najnovejše trende, ki vzpodbujajo razvoj izobraževalnih iger. Govora bo o tem, kaj izobraževalna igra je in kaj ni. Obravnavali bomo, katere kriterije mora dobra izobraževalna igra izpolnjevati in katere gradnike mora vsebovati. Analizirali  bomo tipe učencev-igralcev.  Nakazano bo nekaj primerov dobre, pa tudi slabe prakse izobraževalnih iger. Srečali se bomo s prednostmi in pastmi, ki se skrivajo za igrami. Podan bo tudi uvod v orodja, ki omogočajo razvoj izobraževalnih iger. In pogledali bomo, kaj nas čaka v prihodnosti.

Abstract

We have got acquainted with the latest trends that encourage the development of educational games. There is a controversy going on what can be labelled as an educational game and what can not carry this labelling. We will deal with the criteria that a good educational game must meet and what constituent parts it must contain. Further on, the types of students-gamers will be analysed and examples of both, good and bad practice of educational games, will be presented. We will also point at the advantages and drawbacks of games. And there will be an introduction into the tools that enable educational games to develop. Last but not least,  a view into the future in this field will be cast.
