商品描述
Short Sims: A Game Changer is the definitive guide to creating simple, highly efficient educational simulations for the next generation of learners.
Interactivity is the key to effective educational media in schools, corporations, the military, and government. And through this Short Sims methodology, interactive content is now no harder to produce than traditional linear content.
This essential book guides anyone through the steps of quickly creating highly engaging and responsive content. The process combines Aldrich's decades of research and implementations with leading organizations (including Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Harvard Business School Publishing, Visa, Microsoft, Education Testing Services, Center for Army Leadership, Department of State) with new tools that have just emerged.
And the same Short Sim methodology can be applied to assessment, virtual reality, journalism, and complex educational simulations, and help in the planning of computer games.
Key Features
- Provides numerous code examples to illustrate how to put the techniques into practice
- Includes never-before published foundational theories and practices around interactivity in education, including developing competence and conviction in learners, replayability, and new forms of assessment.
- Includes expanded introductions to mathematics fundamental to computer graphics and game development
- Progresses from simple examples to open approaches only bound by the limits of the designers' imagination.

《短小模擬：遊戲改變者》是為下一代學習者創建簡單且高效的教育模擬的權威指南。
互動性是學校、企業、軍事和政府中有效教育媒體的關鍵。透過這種短小模擬的方法，互動內容的製作現在與傳統的線性內容一樣簡單。
這本必備的書籍指導任何人快速創建高度吸引人且反應靈敏的內容。這個過程結合了Aldrich數十年的研究和與領先組織（包括比爾和梅琳達·蓋茨基金會、哈佛商學院出版社、Visa、微軟、教育測試服務、陸軍領導中心、國務院）的實施經驗，以及剛剛出現的新工具。
同樣的短小模擬方法也可以應用於評估、虛擬實境、新聞報導和複雜的教育模擬，並幫助計劃電腦遊戲。
**主要特點**
- 提供大量代碼示例，以說明如何將技術付諸實踐
- 包含前所未有的關於教育互動性的基礎理論和實踐，包括培養學習者的能力和信念、可重玩性以及新型評估方式
- 包含擴展的數學介紹，這些數學對計算機圖形學和遊戲開發至關重要
- 從簡單的例子進展到僅受設計者想像力限制的開放方法
作者簡介
Clark Aldrich solves some of education's biggest problems, working with corporations, universities, foundations, the US military, non-profits, government organizations, and VCs.
Most recently, Aldrich has re-invented educational content with an interactive model called Short Sims, which is more effective and more engaging for the learners and faster to create and less expensive for the producers. Short Sims renders traditional approaches alone obsolete.
Prior to that, Aldrich introduced and popularized games and simulations for online learning, and then published Unschooling Rules, his fifth book, which redefined the culture of learning, has been cited by President Obama, and adopted by leading schools everywhere.
Earlier still, Clark Aldrich founded Gartner's thought-leading eLearning coverage which defined the emerging industry.
Aldrich has been called a 'guru' by Fortune Magazine and a 'maverick' by CNN. Aldrich and his work have been featured in hundreds of sources, including CBS, ABC, The New York Times, USA Today, AP, Wall Street Journal, NPR, CNET, Business 2.0, BusinessWeek, and U.S. News and World Report. He has written six books based on his first hand experiences, has a degree from Brown University in Cognitive Science, taught at a leading environment education foundation, has given numerous keynotes, and his patent and award winning programs have earned millions.
He grew up in Concord and Weston, Massachusetts, and is the ninth great-grandson of Governors John Winthrop and Thomas Dudley, first and second governors of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
克拉克·阿爾德里奇（Clark Aldrich）解決了教育領域的一些重大問題，與企業、大學、基金會、美國軍方、非營利組織、政府機構和風險投資公司合作。
最近，阿爾德里奇重新定義了教育內容，推出了一種名為 Short Sims 的互動模型，這對學習者來說更有效且更具吸引力，對製作方來說則更快速且成本更低。Short Sims 使傳統的單一方法變得過時。
在此之前，阿爾德里奇引入並普及了在線學習的遊戲和模擬，並出版了他的第五本書《Unschooling Rules》，該書重新定義了學習文化，曾被歐巴馬總統引用，並被全球領先學校採納。
更早之前，克拉克·阿爾德里奇創立了高德納（Gartner）引領思想的電子學習報導，定義了這個新興行業。
《財富》雜誌稱阿爾德里奇為「大師」，《CNN》則稱他為「特立獨行者」。阿爾德里奇及其工作曾在數百個媒體來源中報導，包括 CBS、ABC、《紐約時報》、《今日美國》、美聯社、《華爾街日報》、NPR、CNET、《商業 2.0》、《商業周刊》和《美國新聞與世界報導》。他根據自己的第一手經驗撰寫了六本書，擁有布朗大學的認知科學學位，曾在一家領先的環境教育基金會任教，並發表了多次主題演講，他的專利和獲獎計劃為他帶來了數百萬的收益。
他在馬薩諸塞州的康科德和韋斯頓長大，是馬薩諸塞灣殖民地第一任和第二任總督約翰·溫索普（John Winthrop）和托馬斯·達德利（Thomas Dudley）的第九代曾孫。
