Hello all,

I hope everyone is recuperating from a long and exhausting election process. 

The need for education and finding new venues for learning is only more necessary now, so I hope you will join us for the following online event:

On Tuesday, November 15th at 7 pm ET, the Learning, Education and Games (LEG) group of the IGDA will host two demos of games/apps by designers:

Murtaza Saadata // HyperPad app (http://www.hyperpad.com)
Scott Reinke // Ball State Achievements app

We will meet on the Slack channel (#monthlymeetings). 

All are welcome to join.

Immediately following the demos, on November 15th at 8 pm ET on Slack, we will be hosting a conversation about creating a games and learning conference or curating part of an existing conference.

If you are already working on creating a new games and learning conference, please let us know! Or, if you want to work on it - tell us! We are interested in connecting. Feel free to also join our conversation on Slack on November 15th at 8 pm. Or, if you just want to help out, or share perspectives, please come and join us.

We will meet on the Slack channel (#monthlymeetings initially, but ask me to invite you to the conference channel). 

Take care, 

Karen

I'm interested in your group and monthly meetings. However, I didn't see this announcement until today (16th). Is there a way for me to receive notices before the meetings?
I'm a learning game developer.
