The concept Game Balancing is not very clear in the descriptions provided in the literature. Hence to help to understand this concept in this work we have quoted and reviewed a few publications on game balancing produced by well known designers. The papers analysed shown that the concept is treated with analysis, concepts, definitions and key issues. The similarities and differences are explained and we proposed the concepts suitable for games in general, but that their concepts differ, that they focus on games made for fun and entertainment. Thus we conclude that there is no universal definition for “game balancing” suitable for games discussed. Read More Read Less

Preserving and managing available water resources in a few places water is scarce, is important because water availability in some communities is a big question. In this work we tried to use a few ICT tools such as interactive multimedia and other gamification tools to find children and can be used in classrooms to facilitate learning, as well as the development of skills and abilities to raise awareness of children being an important support to teaching-learning processes. Thus we intend to promote to the promotion of good water use through “Interactive Games Applied to Sustainable Practices and Responsible for the Efficient Use of Water”, making use of the tools provided by ICTs. In this work we do which is an improvement initiative that incorporates various video elements, text, graphics, animation, and audio. Read More Read Less

To modify and reorient the teaching and learning systems, the of new information and communication technologies contribute to improving the quality. Nowadays the multimedia tend to help the creation of teaching materials that guide student learning. The use of interactive media facilitates the understanding of the contents through various forms of information. The intention is to bring more support and enhance the level of the students. The main aim of this study is the application of an educational multimedia system integrated with the Kinect device. The study was initiated by using the cascade model consisting of sequential development. The evaluation permitted to assess the functionality of the software, and the integration of the kinect device. The intention was to develop an interactive, dynamic and fun environment with full mastery of student participation, and teacher acceptance. We found that the use of any audio visual interactive medium favors learning through sensory organs such as sight and hearing. Read More Read Less
