Discussion: Computer Game Study at UWM

Everyone is welcome to participate in an informal discussion provided by the Serious Play group to be held at the UWM Digital Humanities Lab. 2nd Floor East Wing, this Wednesday, May 4th, at 3:30pm.

Have you taken or taught a course involving games (digital and otherwise)? (Would you like to take such courses?) Are you doing research in this area?

Please join us for an informal discussion of teaching and research on games at UWM. Share your experiences, interests, and ideas about where this subject of study fits into digital humanities and the future of the academy.

Though we imagine a free-ranging exchange, here’s a question on which we might focus: Could (should?) there be a multi-disciplinary program in game studies at UWM?
