This chapter examines the transformative role of video game narratives in enhancing educational engagement. By combining storytelling, interactivity, and immersive technologies, games shift education from teacher-centered to learner-focused environments. These elements motivate students, foster critical thinking, create meaningful connections with academic content. Narratives within amplify engagement support skill development, though aligning storytelling pedagogical objectives remains challenging. Advances digital tools, such as virtual reality artificial intelligence, expand potential games, offering personalized inclusive learning experiences. While concerns about risks like violence addiction persist, this underscores importance collaboration bridge gap between design goals.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination protects against six types of cancer-cervical, anal, oropharyngeal, penile, vulvar, and vaginal. In the United States (U.S.), HPV coverage in college students remains low, especially Mid-South region, despite highest risk infections disease burden. However, few studies have assessed among here. This study examined factors associated with explored preferred strategies for promoting vaccination. A mixed-methods design comprising a cross-sectional, self-report online survey dyadic virtual interviews was conducted. Simple random sampling performed to recruit total 417 undergraduate aged 18-26 from March May 2021; convenience three sex-matched dyads (four female two male) undergraduates respondents who had not completed vaccine series 2021. Binary logistic regression analyses showed knowledge perceived barriers were contributing both male students, while risks hesitancy only students. Findings qualitative content analysis identified students' at multiple levels promotion, corroborating findings study. The provide implications that benefit development tailored interventions aimed facilitating catch-up region. There is an urgent need further research implementation effective address improve uptake this population.
