Learners may develop expertise by experiencing numerous different but relevant situations. Computer games and virtual simulations can facilitate these training opportunities, however, because of the relative difficulty in authoring new scenarios, the increasing need for new and different scenarios becomes a bottleneck in the learning process. Furthermore, a one-size-fits-all scenario may not address all of the abilities, needs, or goals of a particular learner. To address these issues we present a novel technique, Automated Scenario Adaptation, to automatically “rewrite ” narrative scenario content to suit individual learners ’ needs and abilities and to incorporate recent changes from real world learning needs. Scenario adaptation acts as problem generation for intelligent tutoring systems, producing greater learning opportunities that facilitate engagement and continued learner involvement.

This paper presents an interactive narrative framework we have designed for games that promote health behavior change. The framework aims to address two key issues: player engagement with the game, and player adherence to the health behavior change-related homework they receive in the game. In this paper, we describe our narrative system that tackles these issues and a prototype game that promotes physical activity in which our narrative system is integrated.
