[Nettime-nl] vacancy for a PhD researcher (1,0 fte for 3 years)


The Game Research for Training and Entertainment (GATE) program is a
cooperation of several Dutch universities, research institutes and game
development companies. Within GATE, the Research Institute for History
and Culture of Utrecht University's Faculty of Humanities executes the
research project Design rules for learning through simulated worlds. 

 

Within this project we have a vacancy for a: PhD researcher (1,0 fte for
3 years)

 

The interdisciplinary research project Design rules for learning through
simulated worlds aims to investigate how media and game theory can be
called upon to improve the design and thereby the learning results of
educational entertainment and serious games. For that purpose,
researchers from different disciplines such as media and culture studies
and educational sciences aim to build upon theories of serious games and
gaming according to which games are not only designed and played to
entertain, but also to educate, train, and inform.
