SCOPE
======

Serious games and gamification techniques are often used to capture
and maintain user’s attention, engagement, and motivation. This is
particularly important when dealing with our today’s challenges. The
scope of this track is to have novel papers that includes elements of
gaming and gamification techniques used as approaches to solve our
today’s problems and challenges. The problems and challenges could be
within quality of life and well-being, social inclusion,
accessibility, persuasive systems and solutions, lifestyle promotion,
people with disabilities, teaching and education, social and behavior
changes (e.g. global warming and climate changes, nutritional changes,
and health behavior changes), physical exercise promotion
(exergaming), intervention and treatment, mental health, and
addiction.

This track will feature new insights, research, and practice on how to
design, develop and use gamification and persuasive technologies to
create serious games and applications to improve individuals’ Quality
of Life (QoL) and behavior, with a particular focus on people with
disabilities.

The track targets researchers, doctoral students, practitioners and
other people interested in presenting, discussing, reflecting and
networking on central themes associated with the development and use
of serious games and applications to help solving our today’s problems
and challenges. Papers on both theoretical aspects and design method
of gamification techniques and serious games are welcomed, as well as
system prototypes and novel evaluation methods. In addition, the track
welcomes full research, work in progress papers and educational cases.

Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Special
issues associated to the conference are being organized. Selected
papers will be invited to submit an extended version to those
journals.
