Researchers and scientists are now using games as an educational tool to provide opportunities for deeper learning. This application is not just used in the school’s curriculum but also in adult training courses. In Asia, the education market is a very large market with Central Asia having the highest literacy rate followed by East Asia. Even in the South and West Asia, the literacy rate has reached over 75%.
Our purpose for initiating this conference is to foster engagement of academic communities from Europe and the Americas with their Asian counterparts so as to be able to make a positive impact that would enrich the lives of communities through research exchanges that would ultimately translate into market applications.
Our theme for the conference is: “Bridging Communities, Harnessing Technologies and Enriching Lives.”
