Summary

Games and Learning is a programme of research, events and publications. Building on earlier research and development carried out by Futurelab, and on a survey of recent games and learning developments, the project intends to stimulate discussion and the development of new intelligence amongst the research, games industry, policy and educational practitioner communities. The overall aim is to demonstrate what challenges and opportunities have emerged from debates and developments in this field to date, and to identify practical actions to be taken forwards.
