We’ll pop you on a team and make that magic happen. \nFriday: We will all meet up at 6pm on UC’s campus in the game jam room\, allowing a little time for people to show up. We will begin with a brief presentation of our sponsors and information IGDA and what to expect from the event. \n**Then we’ll unveil the theme at 7PM**. \nThe rest of the time on Friday will be networking with others and brainstorming ideas for games. \n**WE WILL DISPERSE AT MIDNIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT**\nEveryone should get at least one good nights sleep! \nSaturday: The real work begins. We will start bright and early (7AM) to maximize the weekend’s time in crafting our projects.

DESCRIPTION:Join Celia Hodent\, an expert in cognitive psychology\, for her latest Masterclass “Unconscious Bias & Inclusion in the Workplace”. \nThe former director of UX at Epic Games (Fortnite) and PhD in psychology will take participants through this 4-hour masterclass diving into the limitations and biases of the human mind. This workshop will help participants to recognize those biases\, account for them\, and redesign the workplace accordingly to foster a more inclusive environment. \nHumans do not think rationally. We believe that we have an accurate perception\, an accurate memory\, or that we can multitask efficiently. We believe that we are in full control of our decisions according to our values\, that we have free will\, that we can understand others\, that we are logical beings. Sadly\, this is all a lie. This workshop proposes to explore some of the most common cognitive and social unconscious biases that trick us into making bad decisions in everyday life and prevent us from building a more inclusive environment\, even if we understand the importance of diversity. It will also offer tips to avoid falling prey to these biases as much as we can\, and improve diversity & inclusion in the hiring and promotion processes. \nYou can register or find out more about the event here \nIGDA members save 10% on tickets
