2019 Conference on Games and Education

We attended an ICEL conference in Cape Town in 2013 and we are planning to return for the  ICEL in July 2018

Yes on the one hand 2019 is still two years away but on the other hand time flies and who could think in 2015 when we were at Sun City for the ICDE conference that time would pass so quickly that the Tornoto ICDE is by now also a thing of the past and we are already making plans for the 2019 Dublin ICDE conference in the fisrt week of November 2019?

So while you are thinking about and planning your abstract for 2019, also note that just before this conference, in the second week of September, the International Conference on Games and Education will take place in South Africa. As soon as the key note speakers are confirmed and the tracks set up, the call for abstracts and the invite for participation in the Games will be posted and I will ensure that you get the information right away.

Planning to attend other Gamification conferences? The 12th European Conference on Games Based Learning (ECGBL) that will also host the 6th International Educational Games Competition, will be held at SKEMA Business School, Sophia Antipolis in France on 4 and 5 October 2018. This conference attracts attendees from 40 countries. The due date for abstracts is 15 March 2018. This conference is organised by Academic conferences and publishing international (ACPI). We attended a few of their conferences and were impressed with the way they do things.    

The ACPI also host the 13th International conference on e-Learning (ICEL) will take place on 5 and 6 July 2018 at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology in Cape Town, South Africa. But hurry because the due date for abstracts is 7 December 2017. Do attend if you can as two of the keynote speakers are Prof Johannes Cronje and Prof Paul Prinsloo - you will learn a lot and widen your view points.
