Day 3 of Convergence! Feeling a bit frazzled around the edges…I was up until 2am last night. And today I have a morning panel to attend, Getting Students Into Science, at 9:30 in Atrium 3. Coffee sings a siren song this morning.
As our society gets more technological, being scientifically literate becomes increasingly critical. Come discuss ways we can attract more non-scientists to be familiar with the subject matter. How can we keep young children’s interest as they grow? Panelists: Renate Fiora, PZ Myers, Dan Berliner, Steven Theiss, Matthew Lowry
This afternoon we’re going to have a few more salons in room 228 as well. Jason Thibeault will be leading a discussion on Ethics in Video Games at 2:00, and at 3:00, Jeremy Messersmith will be stopping by for a conversation about the Neurobiology of Music.
Yes, the party room will be open again at 8pm. We get a lot of people stopping by because in addition to vodka shots, we have a water dispenser and watermelon slices available. Hydration matters! Drink water in addition to all that booze, people!
Easter?
The White Walker PZ raises his hands over the army of dead…
discussion on Ethics in Video Games
wha?
contradiction in terms?
I hope this will be a discussion of how to seek ethics therein, rather than just a search for bits-n-pieces of ethics in existence.
sorry for bringing that up again. Gamergate has made such a big deal over this, i. don.t. know, how. to. drop. it.
Oh, Lord, I do not envy him. Are we taking bets on how many heckling GGers will be present?
