An all new conference “geek out” day offers deep dives into hands-on workshops, mini-courses, and working sessions with top experts in the field. Topics range from courses in media making, learning analytics, program evaluation, and game design, to working sessions focused on delving into cutting edge problems in research and practice.
Each workshop will accept a limited number of participants. Main Conference passes do not include workshop registration.
You still have time to purchase your pre-conference workshop registration pass! The deadline is August 8, 2016.
