[games_access] Call for Paper: Game-based Learning, Duisburg, Germany

[Sandra Uhling]

Hello,

I got a Call for Paper:

Note: Game Accessibility and Silver Gaming are in these topics: "Diversity
and Game-based Learning"

Best regards,
Sandra

 

The 4th workshop Game-based Learning will take place as part of the DeLFI
2010 in Duisburg, Germany.


Motivation:

What is Game-based Learning, what is Edutainment, and what are Serious
Games? What is the major difference between classic eLearning scenarios and
game-based approaches? Is there a way to produce engaging and fun games
which can also be used for teaching and training?

These and other questions have been and will be discussed at the successfull
workshop series Game-based Learning, which took place the first time in
2005, then in 2008, and in 2009, always in the context of the annual German
E-Learning Conference DeLFI.

This year's Game-based Learning Workshop focuses on topics like:

* Learner models in games
* Models of teaching and training with games
* Games didactics
* Games engineering, Light-weight game production
* Mobile Learning - Mobile Gaming
* Diversity and Game-based Learning
* Gender
* Game-based Learning in Second Life / Virtual Worlds
* User-generated Content in Game-based Learning
* Scripting languages for Game-based Learning
