FPS Extensions Modelling ESGs

In this paper we show that the FPS paradigm has metaphorical correspondences with a low level category of ESGs. Extensions of the FPS paradigm lead to simple concept learning lessons analogous to the needs of teachers for the development of low level ESGs for use in classroom teaching. The main FPS extension discussed in this paper is the FSM module. The teacher is not required to recompile any code but simply to provide the data representing the FSM corresponding to each concept learning lesson in the target ESG. The purpose of this research is not to develop the full ESG but rather to show that the FSM module coupled with other extensions to the FPS game development tools provides a means for building future ESG development tools.
