Gaming in the iSchools: Continuing the Discussion

Abstract

The goal of this roundtable is to attract iSchool researchers who are exploring gaming research projects. This will be a sharing roundtable, with the hope of allowing researchers to make connections between schools and across disciplines. Those looking to get involved in gaming research are also welcome to attend and discover potential partnerships. A similar roundtable at the 2008 iConference was well attended and resulted in several collaboration opportunities. The field continues to grow and generate interest in many areas of universities. The goal this year will be to extend our efforts in the hope of creating multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional grant proposals that will allow iSchools to take their turn at the gaming table.
