Hi Seann

I just got an invite to this upcoming NMC Google+ panel.   One of my first
thoughts was that you and your students - or perhaps even your Brazilian
collaborators -  might find it worth either attending live or having a
later look by registering and getting the post-event link.  As you know,
I'm very interested in discovering new directions for language
learning applications related to this topic...

Hope all is going very well for you and your family!  We're suffering
through some late February cabin fever up here in Wisconsin.  My niece from
BH is living with us and going to high school in Milwaukee this semester.
 We're all planning a spring break road trip to visit my son out in DC.
 Too bad that won't happen until mid-April during the week before Easter --
we could sorely use some warmer climes by March!

Best
 Mark

 *What are some great applications of game-play/gamification in education?
What are the elements that make learning engaging? How do you deal with the
criticism that learning through games is distracting? Where is gamification
headed?   *

on
March 5th, we're bringing in edtech experts across the Higher Ed, K-12, and
museum sectors to engage in a live panel discussion about the NMC Horizon
Project topic of gaming and gamification. (Please note that this topic
was originally
called badging/mircocredits in previous event invitations.) While a growing
number of education institutions and programs are experimenting with
game-play, there has also been increased attention surrounding gamification
-- the integration of gaming mechanics into non-game situations and
scenarios. The gamification of education is gaining support among educators
who recognize that effectively designed games can stimulate large gains in
productivity and creativity among learners.

Join the NMC and our panel of games and gamification thought leaders
on *Wednesday,
March 5th at 10am PT / 12pm CT / 1pm ET *(check for local
time)<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001jSHvkuBZuu1WdrmfZsAGni5ZxdSt_mFsyEs5JpjLcnaxmI0bIlONcsOojFOvS9DvN5lybrLCLIbXlr5_g5Ij_5uTVzRah8VCaXI79M7IoppDNhVDtPmZvnclnA0AcWyKg5W2b0eLbMGl1JrhDAkn-bMitf4irrs0dG_XTO2YrBDszndlRLYefStZ3aILxnde2XDErvhL6oMDntCkga6e8X-atnYScIhInE4xEzOlryM-is4h9HAaan3ztRQmNj0pRYtBtBfruM3W75QhygSHVjpCexa_C1Mq67PBHJ59MjViBQrGyZwS1NXXACcrXlzE48C4Saew6JlWFboUO_blMP9o4ZYfMCTyPX5tAbf99ssq3k-VKLtZEoTU1OhH6WvP_MF_0yaJBYwmlPne8mk7O1cD7AWpKUmnpFXOBQ-waFnAWrB4q4mi8jdfeJBHt903GSfASrzCEu9e9qM32Xb2cFew54tUODliLROeNeXZ6OpsCeRyqT8GjabUGTvuCHrs7dA2pt9bXb6tfRE1k1TKcxyTs-3wjVUZOAxcfGJqfoeotVrwHZ6Snunt1nTIzK4dEKCJ35W0pc_mm6KibHAfdpXAvVcgSfz8&c=Oapa9Y8gaxQ3cxcU-HhQhCHKZ3VYgWTO2hULTqCnRNTh21qJMnJz-w==&ch=FlSzKzmpFQ78NRDHKtOG4vOK79tn580-NvrDRpXLre4gkPOYifv9JQ==>.
