Abstract: : Serious Games are becoming more common in the educational setting and must pass\r\nmuster with both students and instructors for their learning experience and knowledge building.\r\nThe Virtual Clinic Learning Environment has recently been developed and implemented at East\r\nCarolina University using a design framework based on Bloom’s variables, and in the process of\r\nrefining those design questions, identifies the methods of how serious games provide an overt and\r\nsubtle learning experience. The overt learning experience is based in the design questions defined\r\nand the subtle experience was derived by examining the idea of sense of place as it relates to the\r\nvirtual environment. By considering these two streams of learning, designers can avoid pitfalls and\r\nbuild on these design elements of a virtual learning environment.
