Creating Characters In A Game Based Learning System, Jaehyun Park, Siegwart Mayr

Campus Research Day

Gamification is the idea of adding video game elements into a non-gaming context, such as for educational or business purposes. Game-based learning takes that idea one step further by not only adding elements of video games, but turning the whole process into a game-like structure.

The Center for Innovation and Research in Computing (CIRC) is currently developing a game-based learning system that can be used in place of a traditional classroom setting. The focus of this research work is on the relationship between users and characters within a course in the Character Module. The Character Module encompasses everything to do …

Generating University Course Catalogs Via A Php Based Module, Chileleko Chileya, Siegwart Mayr

Campus Research Day

Catalogs are a requirement at any university. The current academic system at Southern Adventist University entails creating catalogs for the school by hand. The current model is very outdated and time consuming especially considering the database of all related school records available. The solution is a module using the PHP based framework called Yii to construct a module that will be integrated into the Southern Adventist University website that will automatically generate formatted catalogs through the frontend of the website. The previous module uses Kuali to store academic data as well as provide an API for third-party applications but was …

Visualizing Literary Narratives With A Graph-Centered Approach., Meg Ermer

Campus Research Day

The art of storytelling is multifaceted and nonlinear, involving multiple characters, themes, and symbols while often jumping between the present and past. While media forms such as novels can encapsulate these complexities, it is often difficult to visualize a narrative in an easy-to-understand format. Our contribution is a graph-based system to let users organize and visualize those narratives. Events and characters are represented as nodes and their relationships are represented as edges. Neo4J is used as a database management system to store the graph and to run queries on it, and Streamlit and Pyvis are used to represent the database …
