            Abstract : 
This workshop will introduce participants to the theories behind game-based learning and will lead participants through conceptualising how game-based learning fits within their curricular and training needs by exploring the nuances of game-based learning in diverse settings. Participants will explore how to implement game-based learning within their classroom/training environment and will critique and understand how to design game-based units/modules/lessons.
