Die AfD ist auf TikTok sehr präsent. In Games, Filmen und Songs kommen Kinder mit rechten Symbolen und Inhalten in Berührung. Bereiten die Schulen sie darauf ausreichend vor? Kann die "Verfassungsviertelstunde" helfen?
In Games kann die Rettung der Welt genauso wichtig sein wie ein seltener Fisch im Angel-Minispiel. Wie kann man in so einem Umfeld erfolgreich Geschichten erzählen? Was ist ein gutes Narrative Design? Und brauchen Games überhaupt Geschichten? Das und mehr besprechen wir in dieser Folge gemeinsam mit der Narrative Designerin und Autorin Lena Falkenhagen. Der Beitrag Narrative Design – Podcast E086 erschien zuerst auf Behind the Screens.

Book Club Claire is back for another session of book club! This time we've got our first Paralympics-related selection: "Driven to Ride: The True Story of an Elite Athlete Who Rebuilt His Leg, His Life, and His Career" by two-time Paralympic Snowboarder Mike Schultz (affiliate link). Follow Claire on Twitter and Insta, and on YouTube her channel is C Nat. Keeping with the Paralympics theme, in our Albertville 1992 history moment, Jill looks at the Tignes-Albertville Paralympics, which was the first time the Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics were paired together. If anyone has footage of the Paralympic Opening Ceremony, let us know--it had a bit with hang gliders that sounded pretty cool. Things are relatively quiet in TKFLASTAN, but our ice dancer Charlie White got some good news! In Games-related news, the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee presented its final budget (it's a doozy, but better news than anticipated), as well as its final reports. Now that all of its duties are complete, the committee will dissolve at the end of the month. We also have an update on how the athlete villages and some hotels from Beijing 2022 are currently being used.....and it's not good. Plus, international federation payout from Beijing 2022 is going to be smaller, so look for some belt-tightening.

This week in the news our boys talk about Battlefield 2042 getting delayed a couple weeks. Should we be worried that there will be more delays for AAA titles coming? Im looking at you Halo. Also the Twisted Metal franchise has been blessed (or cursed) by Sony to be turned into a TV series. Maybe someone will drive a flaming dumpster to symbolize how we think thats going to turn out. Finally, since we are going into the home stretch of 2021 we thought we would talk about early contenders for our GOTY discussion. Do your favorites make our list? In Games we have been playing Zach and Justin talk about Skate Bird, and Shannon talks about Deaths Door and Tales Arise. SPOILER ALERT! at 1 hr 15 min we go into What If...? and Ted Lasso spoilers! Have a great week people!
This week the group talks about Gamescom opening night. What games are we looking forward too. Halo Infinite story mode? FarCry? how about the Cult of Lamb... Yeah check it out. The Spiderman : No Way Home trailer released this week and we are ready for Marvel to take more of our money. In Games we have been playing Shannon gets burned by a free to play game that costs $8, Zach played Psychonauts 2 and Justin played more MTG Arena. No spoilers this week! Thank you everyone for taking the time to listen, like and share our podcast with all your friends. We cant continue to do this without you. Be great! We love you.

The branch of mathematics called game theory – the Prisoners Dilemma is a particularly well-known example of a game – is used by philosophers, social scientists, and others to explore many types of social relations between humans and between nonhuman creatures. In Games in the Philosophy of Biology (Cambridge University Press, 2020), Cailin O'Connor introduces the basics of game theory and its particular branch, evolutionary game theory, and discusses how game theoretic models have helped explain the genesis of the meanings of linguistic and nonlinguistic signals, altruistic behavior, the spread of misinformation, and the origins of fair and unfair distributions of benefits in society. O'Connor, who is associate professor of logic and philosophy of science at the University of California–Irvine, also considers some of the drawbacks of game theoretic models. Her short introduction makes a major area of social scientific investigation accessible to readers without mathematical background.

Gaslands in Action In Games in Schools and Libraries episode 116 Donald Dennis and Chris Bell talk about what’s been going on in the library lately. First the pair discuss the Gaslands, a miniatures game that uses Hot Wheels scale vehicles, from Osprey Games. They touch on how it plays as well as customizing cars, making terrain, and how they are using it at the library. Forge Three Keys to win! Next they talk about Keyforge, a unique deck game by Richard Garfield. After talking about why it is useful to libraries they also discuss a bit about the history or technology and game manufacturing. The Detective game, with obligatory cup of coffee. And another bonus game that slipped in when nobody was looking. The final review is about Detective, a Modern Crime Boardgame that plays like a series of episodes from a particularly intense police procedural TV show. A great gaming experience, but only really suitable for particular game environments. A good Detective board, though we had another dry erase board as well, and lots of paper notes. Don’t look too closely, because there may be spoilers. To wrap up they talk about ShushCon (March 22-24) and the GSL Trade Day (March 22). Our topic this year will be using story games and RPGs to support your other activities. Let us know if you have topic requests, or would like to join us to present or run games at the con.

Full crew this week! Russell is back to read thousands of e-mails, and channel his inner Dubya. In news we cover October NPD sales figures, and dive into some teases from the upcoming Geoff Keighley-fest, The Game Awards. The PlayStation Classic is a suspect package, and December's "Free" Games with Gold and PlayStation Plus have been unveiled. In Games played, Cesar enters the Kingdom Hearts Part Dos, struggles through Pokemon: Let's Go Pikachu, and gives impressions of the recently released R-Type Dimensions EX (EVERYONE GO PLAY R-TYPE....). Richard has fallen into the loot-Hell that is Diablo III: Eternal Collection on Switch, and is surprised with its gameplay loop. Michael continues the Odyssey of Assassins and ventures through a retro Sean Connery simulator on GameCube. He has thoughts on Battlefield V's story line and takes a stroll through Mega Man 11 on "beatable mode".

So those crazy blokes are back and bringing you some news, some fun and something to laugh at. This week we take a look at how cities affect influenza (the flu for those envisioning some major plague outbreak). With research discussing how the size, lay out and other variables affect the severity. Strangely enough it appears being a Nerd who likes to spend time inside on a computer etcetera helps to protect you from the flu. We hear the latest on the saga of Star Citizen, and yep, Buck still thinks it might be a Ponzi scheme. But he is getting old and cranky so who knows, maybe he just needs to get more fibre in his diet. We hear about the talent line up used in voice actors for Squadron 42 and that they apparently do have some playable content, not just artwork. The Professor and Buck get excited about Dr Who, although the Professor decides he is sold that the lady dr. is in fact a lady. Well, you listen to it and you will be just as confused as I was, but guarantee you will laugh. The DJ tries to tell us about the latest news from Attack on Titan, which is apparently on hiatus at the moment, although he couldn’t tell us why, but he dropped out for a bit, but heads up, the word is that it will continue. In Games the Professor has been playing with Zombies in an anime looking world, and it is very cool for as it is an RTS. This is a game that is definitely recommended as a fun way to spend some time. After all, everyone loves to kill Zombies right? Buck is still running around Skyrim and tackling the Gecko infestation, we might lose him if we aren’t careful, that game is way too much fun. The DJ has been playing Path of Exile again and loves the game but is scared of the massive skill tree.

Sarah Bonilla6th Grade Literacy & Science Teacher at South Park Middle School (Oshkosh, WI) Twitter: @adventgeekgirlInstagram: adventgeekgirlBoardGameGeek: adventgeekgirle-mail: skrockerbonilla@gmail.comwebsite: adventgeekgirl.blogspot.comSarah hosts a seminar on Tabletop Games and Literacy. The skills people associate with Literacy are actually found in all subject areas, but need to be integrated by content teachers. The Tabletop Game Unit, regardless of being a Literacy focused Unit, is applicable to other subject areas with fine tuning and understanding outcomes. Additionally, she runs a Tabletop Game Club that focuses on engaging with the larger gaming community, not just getting together and playing board games. We have a structured club divided into learning and then application, but the developing of a love for the world of tabletop gaming is always at the heart.Learn more about our club and help support us at GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/southparkgameclubGames in Schools and Libraries is produced in association with Inverse Genius and the Georgetown County Library System.Games in Schools and Libraries Guild at Board Game GeekKathleen's resources https://www.kathleenmercury.com/Email us: schoolsandlibraries@gmail.comThe ideas expressed by libraries included in the podcast are not expressly endorsed by the Georgetown County Library System.

Dave and Ian have recovered from the festive season and are back with two more episodes of Blake's 7 to discuss. In "Assassin," the Scorpio crew discover that Servalan is trying to hire the notorious assassin Cancer to kill them, so they decide to try and get to Servalan first. In "Games," the crew try to steal a valuable mineral supply from under the nose of the game-obsessed Belkov and a bored-looking Servalan. They also discuss deadly geometry sets, classic light gun games, get sidetracked by nostalgia, and, apropos of nothing, verbally abuse Ian's brother.
