What is it about?
Lernkino “Play to Decide” brings together different perspectives on game-based learning, serious games, and modern decision-making development on June 17, 2026, at HALLE 45 in Mainz.
The focus includes questions such as:
Why do playful formats often create more impact than traditional training?
How can complex decisions be simulated and practiced in realistic ways?
What separates true learning experiences from mere entertainment?
How can mini-games drive reflection, behavior change, and lasting capability?
The format combines short, high-impact impulses with practical case studies, interactive simulation elements, and networking. The goal is not trend-driven talk about gamification, but a clear perspective on how playful approaches can make learning more effective, relevant, and memorable.
