Computer games, predominantly a form of interactive entertainment, have been repurposed for game-based learning in recent years. Many studies have presented the educational value that computer games possess with evidence that supports the positive experiences of game-based learning. Game-based learning could be an invaluable learning approach for the 21st century, but is currently hindered by the lack of availability of serious games to support this innovative approach. Developments in software engineering that enable automatic generation of software artefacts through modelling promises new hope for game-based learning adopters, especially those with little or no technical knowledge, to produce their own serious games for use in game-based learning. This paper presents a new framework based on a model-driven approach designed to aid non-technical domain experts in the production of serious games.
