ProsocialLearn: a Prosocial Games Marketplace

Abstract

ProsocialLearn is a digital pro-social games platform. ProsocialLearn consortium aims at delivering a series of disruptive innovations for the production and distribution of pro-social digital games that engage children (7-10 years old), as well as stimulate technology transfer from the games industry to the educational sector. ProsocialLearn will foster the creation of a new market for digital games aimed at increasing social inclusion and academic performance, as well as a distribution channel to deliver these games to children and teachers in European schools. In addition to provide a proven pro-social methodology to design digital games the ProsocialLearn platform makes available a series of application programming interface (APIs), which game developers can use to integrate many of the ProsocialLearn functions into their games, including emotion and engagement monitoring, in-game achievements, games adaptation based on Prosocial Learning Objectives (PLOs), micro-transactions, etc.
