MetaRoundWorm: A Virtual Reality Escape Room Game for Learning the Lifecycle and Immune Response to Parasitic Infections
Promoting public health is challenging owing to its abstract nature, and individuals may be apprehensive about confronting it. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in using the metaverse and gamification as novel educational techniques to improve learning experiences related to the immune system. Thus, we present MetaRoundWorm, an immersive virtual reality (VR) escape room game designed to enhance the understanding of parasitic infections and host immune responses through interactive…

Dia-Lingle: A Gamified Interface for Dialectal Data Collection
Dialects suffer from the scarcity of computational textual resources as they exist predominantly in spoken rather than written form and exhibit remarkable geographical diversity. Collecting dialect data and subsequently integrating it into current language technologies present significant obstacles. Gamification has been proven to facilitate remote data collection processes with great ease and on a substantially wider scale. This paper introduces Dia-Lingle, a gamified interface aimed to improv…

Gamification of Immersive Cervical Rehabilitation Exercises in VR: An Exploratory Study on Chin Tuck and Range of Motion Exercises
Chronic neck pain is a prevalent condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide, causing significant individual suffering and socioeconomic burdens. Although exercise rehabilitation is a staple in relieving pain and improving muscle function for the condition, traditional one-on-one rehabilitation sessions are costly and suffer from poor adherence and accessibility for the patients. Thanks to the increasing accessibility and recent advancements in sensing and display technology, virtu…

The impact of gamification on learning outcomes: experiences from a Biomedical Engineering course
This study examines the integration of digital tools in project-based learning within a Biomedical Engineering course to enhance collaboration, transparency, and assessment fairness. Building on prior pilot experiences, we implemented a structured learning environment that combined experiment tracking, real-time collaboration, and peer-assessment practices. The intervention was deployed across two consecutive academic years, involving master's-level students in Biomedical Image Processing. Data…

RadGame: An AI-Powered Platform for Radiology Education
We introduce RadGame, an AI-powered gamified platform for radiology education that targets two core skills: localizing findings and generating reports. Traditional radiology training is based on passive exposure to cases or active practice with real-time input from supervising radiologists, limiting opportunities for immediate and scalable feedback. RadGame addresses this gap by combining gamification with large-scale public datasets and automated, AI-driven feedback that provides clear, struct…

Can an AI-Powered Presentation Platform Based On The Game "Just a Minute" Be Used To Improve Students' Public Speaking Skills?
This study explores the effectiveness of applying AI and gamification into a presentation platform aimed at University students wanting to improve their public speaking skills in their native tongue. Specifically, a platform based on the radio show, Just a Minute (JAM), is explored. In this game, players are challenged to speak fluently on a topic for 60 seconds without repeating themselves, hesitating or deviating from the topic. JAM has proposed benefits such as allowing students to improve t…
