Keynote speakers

Keynote speaker

Prof. Dr. Sara de Freitas

Thought leader in the field of game-based learning and recognized as one of the most Influential Women in Technology. An educator, author, researcher and public speaker with twenty-five years in education
Topic:

Game Over for Education as we know it?

This presentation will provide an overview of the six main trends in education and how they have been responsible for the Quiet Education Revolution that has been happening over the last fifty years. The revolution has led to significant changes in formal education, including a sectoral move to blended learning. While no significant difference was found between online only and face-to-face provision, significant improvements for learners can be seen when comparing online or face-to-face modes only. In my own research, we found significant improvements in game-based learning as well. With a focus upon student engagement and the LEAR model, this presentation will take teachers and educators through a journey from traditional to future learning providing tips on a shift in learning design from curriculum to learning experiences. As we seek to engage our Generation Z learners who have grown up with mobile phones for learning and are used to be engaged through games and interactive digital content. Game based curriculum and approaches will become more dominant not just to support the design of learning but also for the delivery of learning. What will this mean to the future of learning and the role of the teacher and lecturer? Our discussion will enthuse and excite our audience to try more games in their practice.

Keynote speaker

Prof. Dr. Ivo Wenzler

Professor Serious Gaming at the NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences
Topic:

What is serious gaming and why should we bother?

The reality as we experience it is often complex, ill-defined, and dynamic in nature. The changes within that reality, whether ecological, social, or technological, are rapid and discontinuous. So, if you want to understand what the future might or should be like, learn how to influence it or adapt to it, and build your confidence in achieving that future, what do you do? You play.

Serious gaming as a process of play and serious games as instruments of play, are in effect simulations of our perceptions of reality, providing experiential environments for learning and enabling change.

The presentation will focus on three key questions: what serious gaming is, why should we care about it, and what are the key areas for future research if we want to increase the societal impact of serious gaming.

Keynote speaker

Daniel Stanton

Supply chain executive, entrepreneur, and professor. Known as "Mr. Supply Chain"
Topic:

Supply, Demand, and Consumption: How to respond to tomorrow’s supply chain disruptions

When analyzing supply chains, we’ve often assumed that demand and consumption were synonymous. But they are not the same, and the gap between them can trigger (or amplify) the Bullwhip Effect. Join us to discuss what we’ve learned from the shortages, overstocks, returns, and capacity challenges since 2020, and how to prepare for new supply chain disruptions in the future.

Keynote speaker

Dr. Eveline van Zeeland

Expert coach of organizations, professionals and students on how to apply design thinking in their everyday practice. University teacher for almost twenty years.
Topic:

Creativity is intelligence having fun - Innovative learning in 2030

Creativity is intelligence having fun” is one of the most inspiring quotes by Albert Einstein. During this keynote, we will explore the intersection of these words ‘creativity’, ‘intelligence’ and ‘fun’. Right at the core of this intersection lies the attitude of curiosity, of imagination and of experimentation which is so relevant when one tries to tackle our society’s challenges. This same attitude lies at the core of game-based learning, but also forms the foundation of the work of great scientists and designers as Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci and Gaudí. We will jump back and forth between historical figures as da Vinci and the future of higher education. What can we learn from these historical superheroes with respect to game-based learning? How can we apply their way of working in modern innovative education focussing on solving problems? Which transition will higher education make the coming decade and what is the (changing) role of the teacher in all this? How can the teacher safeguard his human touch in an era of tech-based education? During this keynote, Dr. Eveline van Zeeland will share her insights on these questions.

Prof. Dr. Wayne Visser

One of the world’s Top 10 most influential faculty thinkers and a top 100 sustainability leader.
Topic:

Thriving – the breakthrough movement to regenerate nature, society and the economy

After 35 years of sustainable development, are we closer or further away from regenerating nature, society and the economy? Dr. Visser will talk about moving:

– From breakdown to breakthrough: How does the science of thriving help us understand global systems change?

– From solutions to synergies: How does innovation happen on the journey to thriving?

– From inspiration to integration: How can companies practically implement thriving?

– From lagging to leading: What does leadership look like in a world transitioning to thriving?

Dr. Julia Wolny

Dr Julia Wolny is a professor in Digital Innovation and Responsible Experience Design at EADA Business School Barcelona and Director of the Postgraduate Program in Sustainable Transformation.
Topic:

Designing responsibility into circular experiences

What is the role of experience design in the transition towards circularity? Circular economy models, thus far, focus mainly on materials and resources with limited consideration of the customer experience design and its market consequences. To make this connection organisations must design experiences to give users an opportunity to be responsible throughout their involvement with a service or product. Drawing on research and examples, I will explore three ways in which responsibility can be applied to experience design practice through (1) communication, (2) care and (3) optimisation.

Keynote speaker

Dr. Katherine Whalen

Researcher in Sustainable Business @ RISE Research Institutes of Sweden and creator of In the Loop, the first circular economy board game. Host of the top-ranking circular economy podcast Getting in the Loop.
Topic:

Winning at complexity: Using games to create a circular economy

With increasing threats to the climate and resource disruptions, adopting circular economy thinking is now more important than ever before. Yet, getting people to engage with circular economy can be a challenge. For educators, teaching it isn’t easy – circular economy is a complex topic that spans many disciplines. For companies, implementing it isn’t easy – circular economy essentially requires rethinking how to do business. What to do?

Games to the rescue! Drawing from research as well as Katherine’s experience leading 100+ game-based circular economy workshops, this presentation explores the different types of games needed to create a circular economy. You’ll also discover the common pitfalls people make with circular economy games so you can avoid them.
