    Abstract

    We address the personalized/customized learning claim made by proponents of game-based learning (GBL), that is, GBL supports effectively learning personalization. Even though popular and fascinating, this claim remains unfounded. Indeed, in the literature on games, mentions of the multiplicity of exploration paths are put forth as examples giving players (learners) opportunities to tailor their learning experiences. This implicit assumption fails to demonstrate any kind of relationship between learning customization and playing games for learning. We explore some of the dimensions of the problem, describe a proposed framework, and use an example to demonstrate our approach.
