Digital Dialogue Games for Learning

InterLoc realises Digital Dialogue Games for learning and thinking through combining synchronous group interaction and personal activities. The games promote critical and creative discussion, reasoned dialogue and collective inquiry within the digital landscape. The approach has proven educational value that has been demonstrated through over ten years of research within the Learning Sciences.

Funded through grants from rounds 1 and 2 of the UK JISC (Joint Information Systems Committee) 'e-learning tools' programme, and more recently with a grant from the JISC Capital Programme. Ongoing adaptation and development is also being supported as part of the EU FP7 Integrated Project - MATURE [http://mature-ip.eu], which is investigating 'Continuous Social Learning in Knowldge Networks'.
