This Thursday at Change, Mark Chen and Katie Van Horne will be leading a discussion about how online games can be used to address global issues like hunger, poverty, and homelessness.
This discussion will be based around a talk by Jane McGonigal of the Institute for the Future given during TED2010. They will begin by showing the brief video of her talk (view online) and will follow up with additional details about the ideas discussed. They will then lead a discussion focused around some of the more contentious issues brought up by this talk.
In order to facilitate discussion, Mark and Katie asked that you all try to take a look at the three online games McGonigal mentions in her talk:
