Game Design Summer School 2013

This app provides a showcase of the results of the Serious Game Design Summer School held in Finland in 2013, as well as information about this school and the next.

Held in Tampere Finland, the Serious Game Design Summer School hosted 42 University level Game design Students. The Summer School centred around a role play of a game development company, where students created serious game concepts for selected target groups, embed curricular topics using behavioural mechanics, and provided accurate information through gamification of educational activities. The setting of the Serious Game Design Summer School allows for a new, praxis related learning experience – to learn and directly apply knowledge while working on their products in intercultural and interdisciplinary teams, where each student brings different strengths and competencies as well as communication and collaboration specificities. During the course, Industry representatives will share their expertise either in person or via video conference. The students will have the unique opportunity to share their visions with some of the game development industry leaders.
