description | Much excitement has been generated by the idea of harnessing levels of deep engagement offered by serious games in higher education (HE). However, little is known about academicspsila real views on the use of educational games in HE, yet academics are key to serious game implementation. An in-depth survey of academic staff within the University of Ulster in Northern Ireland was carried out to discover their views of digital gaming, their gaming habits and the possible advantages or barriers to its use in HE. The survey was emailed to 1140 academic members of staff and 480 academic-related staff across four campuses. 190 staff members from six different faculties and central departments completed the survey.
