Who should come?  Who should contribute?

Everyone!  At least everyone who likes, or plays, or designs, or runs, or writes about, or does research into, or simply thinks about, games, simulations, experiential learning exercises, and related methods.

We welcome contributions that report on research, design and practice in simulation and gaming.  Participants at ThaiSim conferences tend to prefer practical and research-oriented sessions.  Although the focus is on learning-by-doing, hands-on participation and reflection-in-action, attention is also given to methodological and theoretical questions.  We particularly welcome our friends from abroad, so that we can share across cultures.

Resgistration, etc

ThaiSim conferences are held in a different venue each year.  Information about each conference is on another web site, usually the host organization.  This includes dates, theme, venue, deadlines, fees, registration.
