The Edutainment Conference series started in 2006, and has become a major international event which combines education and entertainment. Edutainment stands for education and entertainment, and the event covers not only the research issues of game-based learning but also the issues of learning experiences which may be gained from entertainment. Moreover, the proceedings of Edutainment events are published by Springer-Verlag in their prestigious Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. This series is one of the most reputed conference proceedings series in the field. In addition, selected best papers from the conference will be published in selected Journals such as Computers & Graphics or published as book-chapters in the 2nd volume of Springer Verlag Serious games and Edutainment Applications. 

 

Papers will be published in book form in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series (www.springer.com/lncs). Best papers will be published in “Computers & Graphics” (SCI) and “Front Inform Technol Electron Eng" (SCI).
