The Structure of Game Design is designed to help aspiring and existing game designers turn their ideas into working games. Creating a game involves understanding the core foundational elements of all types of games from paper-based games to the latest video games. By understanding how these core principles work in all types of games, you can apply these same principles to design your own game. Games are about goals, structure, play and fun. While everyone will always have their own idea of what might be ¿fun¿, any game designer can maximize player enjoyment through meaningful choices that offer various risks and rewards. Such challenges, combined with rules and limitations, force players to overcome obstacles and problems using a variety of skills including dexterity, puzzle solving, intelligence, and strategy. Essentially games allow players to venture forth into new worlds and overcome problems in a safe but exciting environment that allows them to triumph in the end.Just as playing games have proven popular around the world to all ages, genders, and cultures, so has game designing proven equally popular. Games can challenge players to make the best move, solve puzzles, engage in combat, manage resources, and tell stories. By understanding how randomness, psychology, and balance can change the way games play, readers can decide what game elements are best for their own game creation.Whether your goal is to make money, learn something new, make a social statement, improve on an existing game idea, or challenge your artistic, programming, or design skills, game design can be just as much fun as game playing. By knowing the parts of a game, how they work, how they interact, and why they¿re fun, you can use your knowledge to turn any idea into a game that others can play and enjoy.

Online learning can be so dull--or not!Enter Jenae Cohn and Michael Greer, experienced authors andteachers, who decided it was time to take on the challenge of making online learning more interesting and compellingfor students. So, they met in a Zoom call, contacted Rosenfeld Media, and wrote this book, Design for Learning: UserExperience in Online Teaching and Learning (many Zoom calls later). The book is structured to teach online learning in such a way that anyone can follow its practices and create a dynamic educational presentation. Chapters cover everything fromlearning about your learners and setting learning goals to building connections with learners and giving them feedback. In addition, the authors dive into the nitty-gritty details of creating online courses, including takeaways at the endof each chapter and easy-to-follow examples throughout."I particularly appreciate how thoughtful Jenae and Michael are about considering the experience from the learner's point of view and theemphasis they put on learner agency."--Julie Dirksen, Author, Design for How People LearnTogether, Jenae Cohn and Michael Greer have years of experience designing and producing online courses for students. They wanted the tone of their book to be friendly, supportive, engaging, empathetic, and thoughtful. With that in mind, they chose examples that reflected what an ordinary user might encounter on a day-to-day basis, highlighting everything from complex skills (accessibility) to the most minute details, such as: Writing compelling content and instructional textDesigning interesting text and visualsPlanning and producing videosRecording sound and voice-oversCreating and facilitating live website presentationsDesigning surveys for class feedbackRating whether your presentation was successfulWho This Book Is ForTeachers, learning development professionals, and anyone tasked with designing an online course or a one-off workshopContent creators, instructional designers, user experience designers, and others who care about the experience of online learningWhether you're a novice or experienced online instructional designer, this book will show you how to apply industry best practices, and provide how-to examples, powerful templates, and activities to craft compelling instructional content--whether text, audio, or video.Best of all--your course will never be called dull again.

Putting AI in the Critical Loop: Assured Trust and Autonomy in Human-Machine Teams takes on the primary challenges of bidirectional trust and performance of autonomous systems, providing readers with a review of the latest literature, the science of autonomy, and a clear path towards the autonomy of human-machine teams and systems. Throughout this book, the intersecting themes of collective intelligence, bidirectional trust, and continual assurance form the challenging and extraordinarily interesting themes which will help lay the groundwork for the audience to not only bridge knowledge gaps, but also to advance this science to develop better solutions. The distinctively different characteristics and features of humans and machines are likely why they have the potential to work well together, overcoming each other's weaknesses through cooperation, synergy, and interdependence which forms a "collective intelligence.? Trust is bidirectional and two-sided; humans need to trust AI technology, but future AI technology may also need to trust humans.

Read MongoDB Data Modeling and Schema Design if you are a data professional who needs to expand your modeling skills to include MongoDB or a technologist who knows MongoDB but needs to grow your schema design skills.The book's introduction and three chapters cover the Align, Refine, and Design approach. We include what the level does in the name by rebranding Conceptual, Logical, and Physical into Align, Refine, and Design. The introduction covers the three modeling characteristics of precise, minimal, and visual; the three model components of entities, relationships, and attributes (including keys); the three model levels of conceptual (align), logical (refine), and physical (design); and the three modeling perspectives of relational, dimensional, and query. Chapter 1, Align, is about agreeing on the common business vocabulary so everyone is aligned on terminology and general initiative scope. Chapter 2, Refine, is about capturing the business requirements. That is, refining our knowledge of the initiative to focus on what is essential. Chapter 3, Design, is about the technical requirements. That is, designing to accommodate our model's unique software and hardware needs.Align, Refine, and Design-that's the approach followed in this book and reinforced through an animal shelter case study. If you are interested in learning how to build multiple database solutions, read all the books in the Align > Refine > Design series.
