(2009-05-25) Games For Change

Games For Change is May28-29.

Katie Salen is on a panel: As more and more games are being used and created specifically for Learning as well as civic participation, the need for clear assessment strategies for measuring the effectiveness of the various approaches is increasingly imperative. From well-funded and established game projects like QuestAtlantis, to the extensive and comprehensive studies at University Wisconsin at Madison Wi's Academic Co Lab, to the more experimental initiatives like the NYC "Game School" Quest To Learn, games and learning scholars share their views on how best to begin a long-term and sustainable framework to assess games for learning.
