ABSTRACT
|
| Most Greek elementary and high schools students are not interested in Byzantine history, as they do not consider it as modern or attractive. To intrigue them into attending and deepening their knowledge in this historical period, we propose a Byzantine history-based video game. Students will use their smartphones and tablets to interact with aspects of everyday life (e.g. nutrition, clothing, woman's position etc), military organization, and actual public administration, through digitized copies of artifacts, so as to endorse and resemble a regular Byzantine life, e.g., as a commoner, a soldier, a high-level official, or even an emperor.
