Conference announcement
The second European Conference on Games-Based Learning (ECCBL 2008) conference will take place in Barcelona on the 16th and 17th of October. It’s one of the very few conferences of its kind in Europe which focuses exclusively on the topic of games and learning and all in all promises to be an interesting two days (in a really nice location too)…oh yes and I’m one of the speakers. Blurb from the organisers below:
The conference will address elements of both theory and practice of all aspects of Games-Based Learning, and offers an opportunity for academics, practitioners and consultants involved in the field to exchange ideas. The programme for the event will include an extensive range of peer-reviewed papers, including keynote presentations from leaders in the field.
We hope you find the conference a great experience and we warmly encourage you to join us at ECGBL 2008!
