ISAGA Summer Workshop in Sydney Winter

Participants in the ISAGA Summer School 2024 will explore topics relevant to developing skills as simulation/games designers and users, and will address these learning goals;

• How to design simulations and games that can be used/reused (frame games) • How to provide effective instructions for both novice and expert users

• Understanding and being able to employ the basic skill set for effective facilitation of simulations and games both online and face-to-face, and how to build personalised skill development plans

• How to integrate research strategies into ongoing use of simulations and games

• How to identify research topics to align with specific contextual research goals

The Summer School combines first-hand experiences of simulations and games, with theoretical analysis and in-depth discussion of key issues in the field of simulations and games as educational tools and strategies.

It has evolved as a collaborative, invigorating, and rewarding space for personal skill development, launching of new research projects, support for innovative and challenging uses of simulations and games and a time to expand networks and writing partnerships. A social program included is included in the week’s activities.
