Stories of/by/for the Field of Play - Questionnaire Invitation

[drew davidson]

Hello!

Please help define and reflect on the field of play by participating in an exploratory qualitative study led by Drew Davidson at CMU. You are invited to participate in a questionnaire to help explore the current state of the field around play, specifically in games and related areas (mixed reality, themed entertainment, tech, etc.). The concept of play is rather broad and diverse; from social studies, to heath and enjoyment, to education and learning, to games and technology, and more. As such, this is less a focus on a discipline, and more an exploration of the extensive ideas around play. Results will be published open access by ETC Press. We will share stories of/by/for this wide field of play in the global relationships amongst education institutions, industry companies, professional organizations, foundations and government groups focused on the creative and entertainment technology industries.

Thanks to Connected Learning Alliance, Games for Change, Global Game Jam, International Game Developer Association, Higher Education Video Game Alliance, and IndieCade, along with the Pittsburgh Remake Learning Initiative and the Pittsburgh Technology Council for support with this study.
