[kids-lib] Gaming as Meaningful Education => Sept. 23-24 in NY

Tue Jan 26 09:13:16 PST 2016

Please pardon the cross-posting. So far, the posted schedule has minimal information, so I can’t tell how beneficial this might be for non-school librarians. However, if you are interested in gaming as an educational tool, you might want to check the website<http://www.ala.org/aasl/GAME> occasionally to see if this event is a fit for you.

FYI,

GAME | Gaming As Meaningful Education<http://www.ala.org/aasl/GAME>, a new two-day event from AASL, will focus on how games encourage critical thinking, problem solving and creative activities. Co-sponsored by the ALA Games & Gaming Round Table, GAME will be held September 23-24, in Rochester, N.Y.

Attendees will explore how to implement interactive learning opportunities in their library programs through all types of games. They will also discover how these strategies connect communities – students, parents, and educators – through the educational, recreational, and social value of games.

Early bird registration is open through May 1, 2016, at www.ala.org/aasl/GAME.
