Video Description:
"Campus Conversations" is a 30-minute series that explores a variety of issues, programs, and topics of interest to both the Montgomery College community and the greater community. It is co-hosted by Steve Simon, the College's director of communications, and Fritzi Bodenheimer, a speech professor on the Rockville Campus, and produced by Francine Wyron of Montgomery College Television.
The most recent episode now airing on Montgomery College Television focuses on the expanding world of computer and video games. During the show, Montgomery College's Professor Deborah Solomon and students, Steve Coupe and Jen Tonon discuss the college's gaming program and highlight an award winning game called Hydro Hijinx, created by Steve, Jen and 10 of their classmates. The game, designed to promote discussion about international water rights issues, earned second place in the Reinventing Public Diplomacy through Games Competition hosted by the University of Southern California Center on Public Diplomacy.
Also in this episode, Professor Deborah Solomon, David Versaw of Will Interactive, a local game development company, and Thomas Cox of NOAA's National Oceanic Service discuss the concept of "serious games" that teach skills in a growing number of fields including health, the military, crisis negotiation and sports.
