Interest of a Serious Game in MOOC ?
Targeted population = Students!
Attract young public: dynamism (versus quiz)
Cartoon environment, sound effects
Video games
Situational learning / Practice in a realistic environment
Multiple environments
Refinery
Engine test bench
“Gamification”
Fun environment
Avatar selection
Challenge (points to gain)
10
Interest of a Serious Game in MOOC ?
Student centered, students are the core of the game
Problems to solve are complex (compared to quiz)
Refinery simulator
Motivation (and completion rate)
High interactivity activities (drag/drop, actions like valve
opening)
Learning by “trial and error”: unlimited number of trials
Real skills development by putting knowledge into
practice: “Learning by doing”
11
Technical Challenges
One of the first Serious Game in a MOOC
Web technology HTML5, serious game
developed by aPi-learning
Integration in the open source CANVAS
LMS platform, hosted by UNOW
Integration via LTI app standard (Learning
Tools Interoperability)
No need for any plugin installation
Scores directly inside the CANVAS
student gradebook + avatars management
Game runs on PC and tablets (Android
and IOS) including sound management
12
Technical Challenges
Massive Environment (MOOC)
Large population of users
Graphic and files size optimization
Users access game directly from the
LMS, no difference with other
courses activities (iFrame displays)
Adaptation to the specific LMS of
the School (SCORM 2004)

Outcomes - Interests for an applied School
“The serious games was great because you work like real job”
“The serious games enable us to put what we just learned into
practice. Therefore, we get a better understanding of the course .”
“The serious games is an alternative way of testing. That way a
participant does not feel the subconscious anxiety and pressure that
a normal test provokes but it is a more relaxed and comfortable way
of testing that ensures better performance.”
“The serious game could be far more developed and replace the
quiz’s that are very academic and not really interesting.”
