Serious Games Round Table

The Serious Games Round Table brought together in Brussels on 6 March representatives from the game industry, ministries of education, experts around the topic of games in teaching and learning. The theme is still rather new and the uptake of using games in learning still faces many challenges and misconceptions.

Summer Schools

Two Summer Schools have taken place.

The first Summer School took place in Nida (Lithuania) in April 2006 and provided guidance and training for those involved with implementing the eMapps.com games in the participating schools in each country in addition opportunities for interaction between people involved in the project in all capacities.

The second Summer School took place in Torun, Poland during June 2007 and enabled participants from the eight participating countries to present their individual games and discuss their experiences in playing them live with the children in their own schools. It also provided the consortium members with a chance to observe and evaluate games played live by the Polish schools in Torun.
