2024 Gameful and Immersive Learning Symposium

Innovative methods and technologies for teaching
May 13–14, 2024
EMPAC — Troy, NY USA

The Gameful and Immersive Learning Symposium is an opportunity for RPI colleagues to explore innovative methods and technologies for teaching, such as reward systems that encourage engagement, adaptive content that personalizes learning for individual students, and human-scale immersive environments that place students within the material’s authentic contexts.

Using combinations of these methods and technologies can create impactful educational experiences.

This two-day symposium offers invited talks by field experts, panel discussions with Rensselaer community members, and workshops for creating, curating, and facilitating these types of learning experiences. Symposium events are held in the EMPAC Theater and in EMPAC Studio 2, where the immersive panoramic screen is installed.
