    Hi everyone!

     

    Please excuse cross-postings!

     

    The Games and Learning constituent group is hosting a session at the EDUCAUSE 2018 Annual Conference in Denver, Colorado (October 31 - November 2, 2018). 

     

    Our session will feature a series of lightning talks that may cover any topic in the games and learning space. We want your help in making this a must-attend session.  Submit a proposal for a lightning talk by August 15, 2018!

     

    Lightning talks will be limited to 5 minutes in length and should include some way for the audience to engage further if interested (link to a website, direct contact information for presenter, etc.). The idea is to leave people hungry for more!

     

    If you are planning to attend the annual conference and would like to present, please complete the brief application below. We will notify submitters by September 15.
