Mondays @ the Mills: Help, the Gamer Has Left the Basement! @ The Mills Centre
Mar 19 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Play is a normal way for humans to engage with their environment and subsequently acquire knowledge as well as develop competences. Digital technologies have pushed the potential for games into areas where people engage with one another in virtual and augmented reality. The aim of this talk is to share insights into how games are shaping society and to explore the benefits whilst discussing the potential drawbacks.
