CfP: special issue of S&G on learning in and engagement with games and simulations.
Guest eds: Nicola Whitton & Alex Moseley, UK

An understanding of why and how players engage with games and simulations, and of the factors that can influence and enhance engagement, is crucial for the design and use of effective game- and simulation-based learning experiences. We are seeking submissions from a range of viewpoints and theoretical bases, using a variety of research methods and approaches, as well as articles that provide a practical perspective grounded in research. … Deadline for proposals should be by end of October 2012.
