#FORRT (Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training) now has a #games portal where you can find games to help you teach research skills and also add your own #Games4Research.

Call for interactive sessions for #PlayfulLearning closes midnight on Monday 2nd February!
If you work at the intersection of #learning and #play for adults, take a look. This year's theme is "Into the Woods".

Delighted to share that the Open Research Games Portal by @forrt.bsky.social is now live! You can browse #Games4Research and #OpenScience and add your pedagogical feedback, even add your own #research games.

Yep, here's my gamified quest through research project development, aimed mostly at postgraduates. daisyabbottitchio.itch.io/creative-thi...

A fun day testing a prototype game designed to help interdisciplinary research teams communicate. I'm looking forward to the final version.

Definitely one for the #Games4Research feed. Lovely to see more #GBL approaches specifically to support PGR activities.
This looks very intriguing.

I've just had a very interesting meeting with forrt.org about #Games4Research - some exciting developments are in progress, watch this space. :-)
This builds on the great work by @mccutchv.bsky.social and George Bray.

Are you interested in the context for #Games4Research skills in #HigherEducation ?
Here's my recent paper which surveys opinions on game approaches to research skills training. radar.gsa.ac.uk/9707/
(Survey limited to UK HE but likely to be representative I think?)

Padlet has a new whiteboard option that can support simple games and playful activities (basically a replacement for jamboard or miro): some quiz type examples here padlet.com/gallerytempl...

Me talking about my research trajectory, #Games4Research and how I've used them in teaching over the last ten years or so.
The L&T Chat Show is a great resource for finding out about amazing individuals and the innovations they are bringing to teaching and learning.

One of my papers on #Games4Research is all about gamification of research skills training. Did it work? Find out here!

I might have posted this before in #Games4Research but it's so good!
The Data Horror Escape Room

It was created by Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Leiden University and the Eindhoven University of Technology, inspired by Lieke Mulder and Merel Talbi.

I've resisted as long as I could but I now have instagram! I'm using it mostly to share video abstracts of my research papers in #GBL in #HigherEducation and #Games4Research If you want to connect over there, here's the link: www.instagram.com/daisy_abbott...
Another video abstract for one of my #GBL papers.

Do you know of any #Games4Research i.e. #seriousGames or #GBL that focus on research skills, or research adjacent skills? For students OR staff in #HigherEducation. Things like academic writing, ethics, literature review, open access, publication, or holistic research process? Please share them!

I've been making loads of video abstracts about my #GBL work.
Here's the first one, about the design considerations of my first serious game: How to Fail Your Research Degree.

The CURATE game addresses issues and challenges around digital curation and preservation. It highlights the importance of training in digital curation for practitioners and managers working in libraries, museums and cultural heritage institutes.

One of my favourite #Games4Research - actually research-adjacent as it's about critical thinking skills and fake news:

Also a great introduction to the concept of 'dark play' if you're not familiar: science here! behavioralscientist.org/a-new-way-to...

A game for staff is a really good idea, I've done this before where I 'step out' of my facilitations role to analyse how I'm doing the delivery and some tips, this means you can 'train the trainers' and mitigate the fact that tabletops games aren't very scalable.

Today's share of a #Games4Research game is
Copyright the Card Game (available in physical and online versions). It's "a new engaging approach to copyright education sessions" by @jsecker.bsky.social and Chris Morrison.

Resharing as I recently revamped the website and uploaded a new animation aimed at people who teach research skills in HE.

This one is fun - watch out for goblins and help your students get more familiar with exactly what is or isn't plagiarism: www.lycoming.edu/library/plag...

A photo of a tabletop game with cards laid out to represent doing a research degree along with events cards posing risks to activities. Photo also shows the game box. The game is called How to Fail Your Research Degree.
Sharing my own research game because I ran it yesterday with all the new PGR students and it went really well :-)
