VIDEO GAMES, SOCIAL MEDIA & LEARNING

Join your fellow industry and education leaders, designers, innovators, policy makers, publishers and practitioners at this compelling conference to explore how video games, digital and social media are having a positive impact on learning while developing essential skills that learners and the industry require to compete in the 21st century.

Now in its second year with an outstanding programme, bringing together more than 400 international delegates, this event is at the epicentre of a virtuous circle where the video game and creative industries meet the education sector in a powerful, inspiring and provocative exchange.

Game Based Learning 2010 takes place over two full days and includes an evening social event to make valuable connections in a relaxed environment. With a main conference programme running during these two days combined with breakout sessions for special interest groups there is something for everyone with an interest in using gaming and social media technology to improve learning, teaching and training.

GBL 2010 will explore successful deployments and evidence for both commercial off the shelf (COTS) as well as bespoke serious games in the areas of formal and informal education in schools and universities, healthcare, military, corporate training, banking together with workshops on game procurement and a dedicated strand featuring leading international research in Game Based Learning.
