Meeting Description:

In this one-day hybrid multiplier event we present the 4th
intellectual output of the UPSKILLS project, which focuses on the
creation and implementation of educational games in tertiary education
linguistics and language-related courses. The first part of the
programme will introduce the audience to the UPSKILLS project, and
more specifically its initial needs analysis, its guidelines and best
practices for research-based teaching and the learning materials that
the consortium partners propose, whereas the second part will zoom in
on the use of games within its remit.

The event mainly targets educators, lecturers and curriculum
designers, but students and other stakeholders interested in
educational games and/or languages and linguistics are more than
welcome to join. Participation is free of charge but registration is
required. The event will take place at the University of Malta, but
online participation on Zoom is possible as well. Please register at
https://forms.gle/xJVFWHDN5SBodgPg7 for online participation or at
https://forms.gle/BSpeo4MGrXahX3bn6 for on site participation at
Valletta. Those who register online will receive a Zoom link closer to
the date of the event.
