[game_edu] Game Education Summit USA Call for Papers: USC - June 16-17, 2010

[Mark Chuberka]

The Game Education Summit USA(GES) hosted by the University of Southern
California's School of Cinematic Arts, Interactive Media Division (IMD) is
seeking paper proposals from the academic, creative and industrial
communities for GES.  Details can be found at www.gameeducationsummit.com.  

Through this annual event we aim to disseminate the most recent,
groundbreaking work on games as education as well as game research. The
conference will also have a strong focus on curriculum development and
design.

The 2010 GES USA mission is to bring academia and the industries that create
video games together to share research and foster relationships that will
benefit both groups.

Submissions will be accepted until February 15, 2010.

The focus of the 2010 GES is on video games and creativity. With video games
merging into more and more aspects of our lives, game education plays an
important role in shaping how students view the world.
