We connect educators from every campus and discipline at CUNY who are interested in games, simulations, and other forms of interactive teaching. We seek to facilitate the pedagogical uses of both digital and non-digital games, improve student success, and encourage research and scholarship in the developing field of games-based learning.

AI meets Gamification – Showcase on May 6th

  • Posted by Casandra Silva Sibilin (she/her/hers) on May 2, 2025 at 2:06 pm

    Hi All! I organize a monthly gathering for educators building custom AI chatbots. Next week we’re having a showcase that I thought would be of interest to this group. All are welcome!

    May Showcase: Building Game Bots for Language Practice

    Tuesday, May 6th, 11:00am-12:00pm ET

    Registration: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/M2Lewv92TJOF4YXr-AbyHg

    Guest Presenter: Brent Warner

    Brent Warner is an award-winning professor at Irvine Valley College in southern California focusing on integrating technology and innovation into the language learning process. He works with teachers and organizations across the globe to provide practical advice for helping English Language Learners take advantage of tech to help them communicate more clearly. He blogs about technology integration in the ESOL classroom for TESOL International, and he is the co-host of The DIESOL Podcast, focusing on innovation in ESOL, and is the author of Edtech for Multilingual Learners: 48 Fun & Flexible Activities for Every Classroom, being published by ISTE in the summer of 2025.

    This session will focus on helping teachers build bots that can turn the language learning experience into games for multilingual learners. Join in to look at different ways to consider how gamification and game-based learning fits into the world of Artificial Intelligence and language acquisition! We’ll work together to get the fundamentals and also to play some games.
