• Interactive sessions: 3 pages
  The interactive sessions are encouraged to make use of digital games, or intelligent toys technologies that support specific learning models. We believe that the best way to learn is through hands-on experience, therefore, the interactive sessions are intended to enable participants to experiment with digital games and intelligent toys enhanced learning. This offers the participants opportunities for interactive learning through manipulation, problem-solving, discussion, and engagement.
  An interactive session proposal should be less than three pages, and include:
  §    Title of the interactive session.
  §    Name, affiliation, email, and URL of proposer(s).
  §    An abstract (approx. 200 words) describing the session and stating the significance of topic for the proposed session which will be used in conference promotional materials and programs.
  §    Objective of the session from the participants' standpoint: what will participants learn in this interactive session?
  §    Description of the format of the session, and giving a narrative of the session flow, including roles of organizers and participants, and how participants will learn in this interactive session.
  §    Inclusion of examples of materials, hardware, software and other technologies used in this interactive session.
  §    Number of participants you can accommodate.
  §    Summary of equipment needs. We can not commit in advance to meet all requests. In general, equipment will be responsibility of the proposer.
  

These page limits include authors' information, abstract (no more than 200 words), all tables, figures, references, etc. The author information should include names, affiliation, postal and email addresses, phone and fax numbers of ALL authors.
