Synopsis
This practical book offers designers a new way to see the world, model it, and present it through simulations. A groundbreaking resource, it includes a wealth of new tools and terms and a corresponding style guide to help understand them., Pfeiffer Essential resources for training and HR professionals "Ready to blow your mind? Spend 15 seconds reading Clark Aldrichs The Complete Guide to Simulations and Serious Games. Witty, fast-paced, and non-linear--its Spock meets Alton Brown." --Lynne Kenney, Psy.D., The Family Coach The Complete Guide to Simulations and Serious Games How the Most Valuable Content Will Be Created in the Age Beyond Gutenberg to Google Clark Aldrich Author of Simulations and the Future of Learning and Learning by Doing Praise for The Complete Guide to Simulations and Serious Games "Yes, this is an encyclopedic overview of the simulations and serious gaming world, but its far more important than a how-to book. Aldrich is signaling the end of the age of Gutenberg. Aldrich takes direct aim at why the K-12 and higher education system are failing--myopically trapped in a nineeenth-century world of learning to know in a twenty-first century world that requires the judgment and skills of learning to do. Aldrichs revolution transforms the way we learn." --Jeff Sandefer, founder, the Acton School of Business "Clark Aldrich provides his clear vision of how learning to do will liberate us from our industrial education legacy that has for too long been shaped by outdated, linear, passive instruction. I recommend this book without reservation for anyone interested in the future of learning." --Don Williams, manager, global learning research, Microsoft Corporation "This exhaustive guide to computer gaming and simulation points the way to a new, more powerful way of learning by doing. It is a must-read--a must-read and study--for those involved in education and journalism." --Bill Kovach, former Washington bureau chief of the New York Times, and former editor of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Aldrich has done it again. He provides an intuitive framework for those interested in (and perhaps overwhelmed by) simulations, games, and virtual worlds. Before youre halfway done with this book youll be looking with a new perspective and set of competencies for creating interactive experiences." --Denis Saulnier, educational technology director, Harvard Business Publishing "The Complete Guide sets the standard as the encyclopedia for serious games and simulations. In this comprehensive volume, Aldrich uses hundreds of examples for this new medium. If you want to stay at the forefront of education, this book is a must-have!" --Jerry Bush, program manager, Learning@ Cisco, "Ready to blow your mind? Spend 15 seconds reading Clark Aldrich's The Complete Guide to Simulations and Serious Games . Witty, fast-paced, and non-linear -- it's Spock meets Alton Brown." -- Lynne Kenney, Psy.D., The Family Coach This exciting work offers designers a new way to see the world, model it, and present it through simulations. A groundbreaking resource, it includes a wealth of new tools and terms and a corresponding style guide to help understand them. The author -- a globally recognized industry guru -- covers topics such as virtual experiences, games, simulations, educational simulations, social impact games, practiceware, game-based learning/digital game based learning, immersive learning, and serious games. This book is the first of its kind to present definitions of more than 600 simulation and game terms, concepts, and constructs.

Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book.

The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
