Abstract
Using computer games and games in general for educational purposes offers a variety of knowledge presentations and creates opportunities to apply the knowledge within a virtual world, thus supporting and facilitating learning processes. An innovative educational paradigm such as game-based learning, and guidelines for educational game design are discussed in the first part of the paper. The second part of the paper provides an example of a multi-user collaborative learning platform, “The Training Room”, and outlines the game concept employed.
