Dilemma Game App, Erasmus University Rotterdam
ThemesDilemma Game App, Erasmus University Rotterdam
What is this about?
The Dilemma Game was originally designed as a card game: played in small groups, the participants received thought-provoking dilemma’s based on actual cases from different researchers relating to professionalism and integrity in research. With the aim to stimulate awareness and discussion on research integrity, the game has been widely used for training purposes in research integrity in a variety of organizations.
Recently, the developers have been revitalizing the well-known cardgame into an app, in order to make the dilemmas not only more accessible, but also more relevant to a rapidly changing research environment and available for different purposes. With this app, researchers and teachers can use it individually, in a classroom game-mode and in a lecture mode, by connecting in a group. Moreover, users are now more regularly confronted with integrity dilemmas through notifications, with new dilemma’s added each month and the invitation to share own research integrity dilemma’s.Why is this important?
This app is a great example of an inspiring initiative, since it serves different objectives: it is a usable tool for training purposes, creates ongoing awareness and supports research culture by facilitating discussion. Therefore the App is included in INSPIRE's spectrum of initiatives.
The final version will be launched in June 2020.For whom is this important?
