SUMMARY:PsychEng Seminar Reservation: Prof. Elaine Biddis - Possibility Eng
 ineering: Designing Interactive Media to Support Children’s Therapy Goal
 s
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Elaine Biddis (Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical 
 Engineering\, University of Toronto)\nPossibility Engineering: designing i
 nteractive media to support children’s therapy goals\nFor many years\, c
 hildren\, families\, and clinicians have been enthused by the idea of usin
 g movement tracking video games to motivate children with physical disabil
 ities like cerebral palsy to participate in home-based exercise programs. 
 “Kids love video games. Kids hate boring therapies. Let’s use video ga
 mes for therapies!” But\, can video games be used for motor therapy in a
  way that truly engages children or are they just “chocolate covered bro
 ccoli”? In this talk\, we will discuss the design of therapy games and i
 nterventions through the lens of three contemporary theories of motivation
 : self-determination theory\, expectancy-value theory\, and social cogniti
 ve theory. We will see how these theories have been applied to the design 
 of Botley’s Bootle Blast\, a video game for motor therapies designed by 
 the Possibility Engineering and Research Lab at Holland Bloorview Kids Reh
 abilitation Hospital.\n\nWhen: Tuesday 5 February 2019\, 12:10pm-2pm\n\nWh
