Call for Proposals

The Teach, Play, Learn Conference is accepting proposals for presentations on real-life usage, empirical studies, and/or theoretical discussions of game-based teaching and learning. We are particularly interested in interactive workshops involving the best practices of teaching with games or playful elements in the classroom.

Possible topics may include:

• use of board, card, or video games for educational purposes
• gamification of the course
• simulations and role playing
• use of Augmented and/or Virtual Reality (AR, VR)
• study and research of games in the context of education
• use of games in other educational contexts

Presenters will be asked to choose one of two session options:

• Concurrent Sessions will be 45 minutes long, presenters should leave 5-10 minutes at the end of their session for discussion.
• Posters: Poster on empirical work or innovative uses of games in education.

Proposals must include the following and be submitted online:

1. Session format: Concurrent (45 minutes) or Posters
2. Title of session/talk
3. Elevator Pitch (100 words max for conference program)
4. Abstract (400 words max)
5. Nature and requirements of any interactive elements (concurrent only)

The review process involves a blind reading and feedback by three peers and a final review by the Teach, Play, Learn Conference planning committee members. Proposals are due by 11:59 pm on April 10, 2023. The contact person on each proposal will be notified of the proposal status by April 28, 2023.
