Amanda Leo
Lab Assistant
Amanda just completed her third year in Kinesiology – Exercise Science Stream at UOIT. She enjoys video games, writing and perusing new knowledge and experiences. She was in the Graduate Gaming Lab aiding the students with their studies. She acted as a participant, one who helps run the tests, gather participants, a different perspective on the studies and games/prototypes developed, organize lab use/activities and as a resource for the students that are doing research on topics that involve human movement and gamification. Amanda has helped to run many studies already and is working with her professors in creating a cycle-shoot game for her program.

Abstract = {Modern professional networking is heavily reliant on social media. In recognition of this trend, we present CHI PLAYGUE, a conference game designed to facilitate interaction among strangers and encourage social networking to create a community. The game facilitates the emergence of social dynamics related to trust, allegiance, betrayal, selective interaction, and long- term strategic cooperation. By providing a platform for large-scale playful interaction, we will create an experience that will foster the development of mutually beneficial personal and professional relationships among players.},
