- ItemOpen AccessEmbedded Reference to Embedded Librarianship – Six Years at the University of Calgary(Routledge, 2011) Clyde, Jerremie; Lee, JenniferThis article is an update to a previous article on embedded office hours at the University of Calgary. It examines the nature of embedded librarianship at the University of Calgary and how it has changed from embedded reference to embedded librarianship over the past 6 years. There have been 3 main approaches to achieving embedded librarianship: office hours, long service, and purpose-built branch or special libraries. This article reviews the current literature on embedded librarianship and in that context describes, compares, and discusses the 3 approaches at the University of Calgary.
- ItemOpen AccessGameful Space, Activities and Assessment for Game-Based Learning(University of Calgary, 2015-06) Kim, Beaumie; Gupta, Diali; Clyde, Jerremie; Werklund School of EducationThis paper discusses the iterations of designing and implementing a graduate level course on digital game-based learning at a Western Canadian university. We critically analyze the design of the course by examining the tensions that arose between the course assessment and social practices common in playing games, and discuss activities introduced to mitigate such tension. We also consider how the use of the university library’s space and resources in the second iteration provided new opportunities for the course. We explore on how “playable” the course has been and present our proposed improvements for the next iteration.
- ItemOpen AccessGamefulness in Designing Digital Game-Based Learning Through a Role-Playing Game(University of Calgary, 2016-05) Kim, Beaumie; Gupta, Diali; Clyde, Jerremie; Werklund School of Education; Libraries and Cultural ResourcesThis paper discusses the third iteration of redesigning and implementing a master’s level course on Digital Game-Based Learning (DGBL). We investigated how the course redesign of activities and assessments fostered multiple ways of teaching and learning with games, digital media and play. The authors created a role-playing card game for designing digital games for learning. We used this game in the classroom, and observed that learners adopted a lusory attitude in their design and gaming task. We discuss our overall redesign emphasis on learners’ gameful participation and the preliminary findings from the classroom adoption of the card game.
- ItemOpen AccessThe Teaching Game: Integrating HCI and SoTL By Adapting Video Game Research Methods(2023-02-23) Norman, D'Arcy; Finn, Patrick; Sharlin, Ehud; Aycock, John; Ullyot, Michael; Clyde, Jerremie; Couros, AlecThis dissertation proposes and systematically explores the potential for integrating the distinct but overlapping disciplines of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). This work of integration is approached through a series of research projects from different perspectives, demonstrating the potential for adapting concepts from the design and formal analysis of video games to enrich the study of course designs and of understanding the varied experiences of instructors and students. Video games provide a useful point of integration between HCI and SoTL, specifically through concepts and principles employed in the design of video games, and through the adaptation of research methods that have been developed to enable formal analysis of video games. It is our hope that integrating HCI and SoTL helps to address limitations in each discipline -- to move HCI away from technical evaluation within contrived or laboratory contexts, and to move SoTL toward more deeply understanding the roles of technology, design, and performance. The dissertation is organized into three parts. Part 1 introduces the reader to the dissertation, situates it within existing scholarship, and describes the research methods that will be utilized. Part 2 presents the findings of a series of research projects that explore aspects of HCI/SoTL integration. Part 3 synthesizes these findings into a novel framework that has the potential to extend our ability to design and describe teaching and learning, and to add meaningful context to research into the design of and interactions with technology.
