Transaction data from a large commercial virtual world — the first such data set provided to outside researchers — is used to calculate metrics for production, consumption and money supply based on real-world definitions. Movements in these metrics over time were examined for consistency with common theories of macroeconomic change. The results indicated that virtual economic behavior follows real-world patterns. Moreover, a natural experiment occurred, in that a new version of the virtual world with the same rules came online during the study. The new world's macroeconomic aggregates quickly grew to be nearly exact replicas of those of the existing worlds, suggesting that `Code is Law': macroeconomic outcomes in a virtual world may be explained largely by design structure.", "publicationTitle": "New Media & Society", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2009", "volume": "11", "issue": "5", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "685 -707", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1177/1461444809105346", "citationKey": "", "url": "http://nms.sagepub.com/content/11/5/685.abstract", "accessDate": "2010-11-05T14:35:57Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "As real as real?", "language": "", "libraryCatalog": "Highwire 2.0", "callNumber": "0054", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [ { "tag": "MMOG" }, { "tag": "economics" }, { "tag": "video games" }, { "tag": "virtual economies" } ], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2010-11-05T14:35:57Z", "dateModified": "2013-04-01T20:19:27Z" } }, { "key": "P5MEIS4A", "version": 7166, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 30682, "name": "Penn State's Educational Gaming Commons Research Library", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/penn_states_educational_gaming_commons_research_library", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/30682/items/P5MEIS4A", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/penn_states_educational_gaming_commons_research_library/items/P5MEIS4A", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 124495, "username": "cstubbs", "name": "Chris Stubbs", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/cstubbs", "type": "text/html" } } }, "lastModifiedByUser": { "id": 1326970, "username": "fviertel", "name": "Federico Viertel Arze", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/fviertel", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Squire", "parsedDate": "2006-11", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "P5MEIS4A", "version": 7166, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "From Content to Context: Videogames as Designed Experience", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Kurt", "lastName": "Squire" } ], "abstractNote": "Interactive immersive entertainment, or videogame playing, has emerged as a major entertainment and educational medium. As research and development initiatives proliferate, educational researchers might benefit by developing more grounded theories about them.

Players' understandings are developed through cycles of performance within the gameworlds, which instantiate particular theories of the world (ideological worlds). Players develop new identities both through game play and through the gaming communities in which these identities are enacted. Thus research that examines game-based learning needs to account for both kinds of interactions within the game-world and in broader social contexts.
