-------  Call for Papers for ICCE 2011-C5 Subconference -----------

ICCE Conference on Game and Toy Enhanced Learning and Society (GTEL&S)
November 28, 2011 (Monday) to December 2, 2011 (Friday)
Chiang Mai, Thailand

Organized by Asia Pacific Society for Computers in Education

In response to the emerging research diversity, ICCE2010 will be a meta-conference,
a conference of collocated theme-based conferences. This is the Call for Papers for
the theme-based conference, C5: ICCE Conference on GTEL&S, standing for
'Game and Toy Enhanced Learning and Soceity'. The spurring interest in deriving
pedagogical principles and design from video games and digital toys offers a new angle
of designing 'how to learn' in the future. More specifically, GTEL&S puts 'why to learn'
(motivation and engagement) as a prominent element in our design. How to relate that
element with other elements: 'how well to learn' (learning performance), 'what to learn'
(domain knowledge), 'what to learn with' (computer programs or digital toys,
virtual characters or robots), 'where to learn' (physical settings or online), and
'who to learn with' (individuals or teams) are the fundamental issues of investigation.
Such endeavor will lead to significant extension of the horizon of technology enhanced
learning research.
