Abstract.

Research shows that Serious Games offer a great number of educational potentials. Yet, very few teachers actually use them or even know of their existence. It’s the same with Mixed Reality or Augmented Reality applications. These technologies offer great potential but are mostly used in research projects. Some schools will advertise the use of such technology but, in reality, they are only used in very rare occasions and seldom related to the pedagogical activities set up by teachers. In this talk, we will identify the difficulties related to the adoption of Serious Games and innovative interactions, such as Mixed Reality or Augmented Reality. We will then explore some of the solutions pursued by the computer science community and highlight what still needs to be done!
