Meeting Information
By special request, NEFLIN is kicking off a new Gaming Interest Group! Gamification is a huge trend in libraries and other educational institutions. This group will help us pool our collective knowledge and experience so that our libraries can lead the way in incorporating effective - and fun! - practices into our programs and services.

The first meeting of this group will take place online on Friday, May 27th, from 10:00 - 11:00 am. Our special guest speaker is Dr. Chris Harris, Director of the School Library System for the Genesee Valley Educational Partnership AND founder of Play Play Learn. Chris's specialty is using a game-based approach in teaching and learning. Most recently, Chris facilitated NEFLIN's School Libraries Mini-Institute. |

Let’s talk about themes, mechanisms, the skill/chance continuum and other aspects that go in to connecting players with the right game.
