Abstract

This chapter discusses the creation of an educational game about sexually transmitted infections. STIs: Stopping the Transmission was created using the Parcheesi™ generic educational game shell (GEGS). It also presents the validation of the game with experts, followed by its trial with secondary school students to measure the effectiveness of the motivational mechanisms provided by the shell and its adequacy in meeting teachers’ pedagogic requirements.
