Welcome to the main page of the GameLab Wiki-Project.
About
The GameLab-Wiki is a research database, which adresses the studies of computer games in the context of the GameLab University of Konstanz. This collaborative project between students, teachers and researchers is being developed in a seminar course of the Literature-Art-Media study programme at the University of Konstanz. The aim of this project is to maintain, produce, and discuss knowledge, which contributes to the field of academic computer games research.
The platform is meant to be a research database as well as an interactive tool to work with within a scientific context. Regarding the purposes just mentioned, it is important to acknowledge that the Wiki structure itself is based on continuous processing. Therefore this Wiki does not raise a claim for completeness in terms of research approaches and listed authors or games.
Editing
As mentioned above, the Wiki structure provides the possibility of continuous contentual development. This possibility of participating and shaping the Wiki is given every user who is willing to contribute new topics. In order to ensure a certain level of structural, contentual and stilistic coherence, some Guidelines have been added and can be found within „additional sites“. It is crucially requested that every user willing to add some content consults and accepts these Guidelines in order to maintain a wide-ranging and user-friendly platform.
Sections
This site is under development and is proposed to contain the following main subjects, that will also structure the
setup of the data base and facilitate the access to the provided knowledge:
