All the World’s a Game

ITI Bloggers October 25th, 2006

Liz Lawley — professor, librarian, blogger — gave a lively final keynote at Internet Librarian. She talked a lot about gaming, fun and play. I definitely want to try the "reverse scavenger hunt" where teams go out and get items, then receive the list of what they are supposed to find and must justify how what they have is what’s on the list. Great for brainstorming, team building, acting, etc. Liz also talked about her expereinces in virtual worlds and games and pointed to some interesting ways in which games can be used in the social context.
