Call for Papers:

The Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Gaming and   Computer-Mediated Simulations (IJGCMS) would like to invite you to   consider submitting a manuscript for inclusion in this scholarly   journal. The following describes the mission, the coverage, and the   guidelines for submission to IJGCMS.

Mission

The International Journal of Gaming and Computer-Mediated   Simulations (IJGCMS) publishes research articles, theoretical   critiques, and book reviews related to the development and   evaluation of games and computer-mediated simulations. One main goal   of this peer-reviewed, international journal is to promote a deep   conceptual and empirical understanding of the roles of electronic   games and computer-mediated simulations across multiple disciplines.   A second goal is to help build a significant bridge between research   and practice on electronic gaming and simulations, supporting the   work of researchers, practitioners, and policymakers.

Coverage

Recommended topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

Cognitive, social, and emotional impact of games and simulations

Critical reviews and meta-analyses of existing game and simulation   literature

Current and future trends, technologies, and strategies related to   game, simulation development, and implementation Electronic games and simulations in government, business, and the   workforce
Electronic games and simulations in teaching and learning

Frameworks to understand the societal and cultural impacts of games   and simulations
Impact of game and simulation development use on race and gender   game and simulation design
Innovative and current research methods and methodologies to study   electronic games and simulations
Psychological aspects of gaming

Teaching of games and simulations at multiple age and grade levels
