No BSECS this year for me, but will be at UKGE (observing), the Southampton Global Austen conference (doing something weird with Austen games), & possibly Playful Learning.
And between doing some playtesting & talking & sharing drafts & hiding & writing some more.

#BSECS2025 is the 54th Annual Conference of the British Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies, this year being held between the 7th and the 10th January at Pembroke College Oxford. The only #businessandeducationtechnology trends that we are interested in are #18thC ones!
