Abstract

Interactive Digital Storytelling (IDS) is a growing hybrid discipline bringing together computer games and cinematic storytelling enabling entertaining education. CeRC developed IDS game “Edugame4All” to improve children understanding of hygiene and responsible antibiotic use. This short paper presents an evaluation results assessing knowledge gain against the project prescribed learning objectives and proposes a novel framework called “seamless evaluation” inserting fine-grain questions into the story narrative and introducing a debrief session to evaluate without decreasing players’ immersion.

Keywords: educational web games game evaluation interactive storytelling
