Journal of Play in Adulthood<\/strong>
A reminder that the Journal <\/a>has an open call for papers, but we\u2019d especially welcome those presenting at the Playful Learning Conference to consider writing up their material as a journal article. It\u2019s Diamond Open Access (no charge to read or publish), peer-reviewed, and typically articles are 5-8,000 words but all formats are considered (guidelines here<\/a>). Deadline early September for publication in the first issue next year, early 2023.

WonkHE Education Espresso<\/strong>
WonkHE are running free ‘Education Espresso’ events over the Spring\/Summer, and the last event on 27th May was around Pedagogy and Playfulness. It featured an interesting discussion of play in leadership from Susannah Quinsee and examples of gamification within curriculum from Isaiah Wellington-Lynn. The recording will be available soon from:

Playful work?<\/strong>
Would anyone be interested in an online \u201cplayful work\u201d (sort of) course? I\u2019m pondering setting something up that would be a small amount of content, together with a series of \u201cchallenges\u201d spread over a few months to be more playful in the workplace \u2013 if you\u2019re interested in being a guinea pig for a first draft version, either for free, or a small charge to cover a platform for it (depending on the platform I use!), email a.p.walsh@hud.ac.uk with \u201cplayful work guinea pig\u201d as the subject line. If I get enough guinea pigs, I\u2019ll contact people once the first draft is set up!

Do try it out if you haven’t seen it before – it’s a great example of Twine as well as exemplifying many Playful Learning techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This new version includes a map, a side quest for those doing the quest as a group – as requested by user, tips for group work, and a mini-game where you battle the spider (diagram) Enjoy and share!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
