Serious Games - Learning through Play
Katryna Starks

Games are a wonderful way of fostering learning through intrinsic motivation. Serious Games embed learning into the games that students are already playing. While some are aware of games that teach coding and STEM, this talk explores games that further the understanding of history, language, culture, and the ways that entertainment games integrate serious content, promoting a lifetime of learning.
