Disclosure of Support Statement: Increasing Student Transparency About Support from Software Like ChatGPT
James Lipuma and Cristo Leon
Our latest publication in the Journal of Engineering Research introduces the Disclosure of Support Statement (DSS) tool to enhance transparency and student engagement in academic writing. This innovative tool encourages students to openly discuss and reflect on the various human and software supports utilized in their writing processes, such as professors, peers, and artificial intelligence software tools. The DSS tool seeks to initiate meaningful conversations around academic integrity and the educational journey by promoting ethical considerations and fostering critical thinking. Through a detailed pilot study, our research offers insights into student attitudes towards support mechanisms, setting the stage for further development and refinement of the DSS tool to better support academic writing and ethical understanding in the educational landscape.

Aplicación del enfoque ontológico de las tres heurísticas a la simulación-simulacro como elemento esencial de los Juegos de Rol de Mesa [Presentación en conferencia]
Cristo Leon, Miguel A. Bastarrachea-Magnani, and Edgar Meritano Corrales
Este trabajo se sumerge en la ontología de los Juegos de Rol de Mesa (TTRPGs), una disciplina filosófica que interroga sobre la esencia y la existencia dentro de sistemas categoriales, como se discute en Honderich (2005). Al considerar a los TTRPGs como un objeto de estudio de naturaleza compleja y posmoderna, los autores se alinean con las perspectivas teóricas y prácticas interdisciplinarias sugeridas por Deterding & Zagal (2018). A través de la lente de la fenomenología, se plantea una pregunta central para todos los implicados en el fenómeno RPG: '¿Qué es un RPG?'. Para responder a esta inquietud, Bastarrachea-Magnani et al. (2023) proponen un marco teórico innovador que implementa tres heurísticas: la identificación de elementos esenciales, el examen metafórico y el análisis metaontológico. Este enfoque proporciona un punto de partida revitalizado para la exploración de las dimensiones ontológicas de los juegos de rol y promete enriquecer el corpus académico relacionado con las narrativas lúdicas y la estructura de los juegos de simulación.

La Importancia de la Comunicación Efectiva en el LARP: Evitando conflictos y mejorando la inmersión [Presentación en conferencia]
Cristo Leon and Liliana Sainz Márquez
El "7mo Coloquio Internacional de Estudios sobre Juegos de Rol" presenta una sesión esencial titulada "La Importancia de la Comunicación Efectiva en el LARP: Evitando conflictos y mejorando la inmersión". Cristo Leon examina con meticulosidad el papel crucial que desempeña la comunicación en la dinámica de los juegos de roles en vivo (LARP). A través de un análisis detallado, el estudio desglosa cómo una comunicación efectiva no sólo eleva el nivel de inmersión y disfrute del jugador, sino que también es una herramienta clave para mitigar conflictos y fomentar un ambiente de mutuo respeto. La investigación expone los desafíos y las repercusiones de la comunicación deficiente, proporcionando, además, estrategias para la reflexión y la retroalimentación pos-evento que potencian la cohesión del grupo y el enriquecimiento de la experiencia LARP. Esta presentación es imperdible para organizadores y entusiastas de LARP que buscan profundizar su comprensión de la comunicación interpersonal en contextos lúdicos y su efecto en la construcción de comunidades colaborativas y empáticas.
