Abstract

We report on a Game based learning system, in which players can freely explore consequential judgment and dynamic decision making tasks based on an inquiry learning paradigm. The simplified dynamic game model integrates and balances several game components allowing players reading and steering minds of in-game characters, and subsequently influencing game stories. We implemented parts of a leadership competency framework allowing players discovering and influencing key stakeholders in order to influence key outcomes.
