Earlier in August, the UTS Games Studio had the pleasure to host the 10th iteration of the International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health (SEGAH 2022).
This conference aims at creating a space for sharing knowledge, experiences, and scientific and technical results, related to state-of-the-art solutions and technologies on serious games and applications for health and healthcare.
With the UTS Bachelor of Science in Games Development (now just Bachelor of Games Development) being successfully re-accredited this year, we want to take the chance to catchup with all the graduates that have made this degree such a success and celebrate the last five years of the degree and more.
The paper "Gamification Of Discussoo: An Online Ai-Based Forum For Serious Discussions" was selected for the Outstanding Paper Award at the 15th International Conference on Game and Entertainment Technologies 2022
Congratulations to the authors: Elena Bakhanova, Madiha Anjum, Jaime A. Garcia, William L. Raffe and Alexey Voinov on this success story.
