Abstract:
The main purpose of this paper is to present a new taxonomy to identify perspectives of development of educational games for design and innovation. To develop this proposal, we first presented a state of the art about educational games definitions and taxonomies. After describing their limitations, we then proposed a new taxonomy in the second part with three specific criteria: public, purpose and skill. In the third part, we classified within this new taxonomy all the articles concerned by educational games of the Design Society Database containing more than 7000 papers. Finally, the results are discussed to identify perspectives of development of new educational games.
