HEVGA European Symposium

The Higher Education Video Game Alliance Are you a game educator with an interest in connecting with other educators across the globe? Are you willing to share your experience and insights to improve the field? Join the Higher Education Video Game Alliance on Gotland in June!

In collaboration with HEVGA chair Miriam Eladhari, HEVGA Executive Director Jonathan Elmergreen, the 2018 symposium will focus on three primary topics:

  • Suggesting an agenda for the newly established European Council to represent us effectively in the global Alliance.
  • A practical strengthening of the Alliance through Erasmus agreements.
  • The start of a Research School at postgraduate level. This is a little more ambitious; we intend to construct a framework for a European Research School such that the idea is “application ready” in the event of finance being available.

Your university does not need to be a HEVGA member to participate in the symposium!
