14. Gaming
“EduTational”
The concept of “edutainment” is particularly important because many/most medical meetings will
not allow “games” on the exhibit floor unless they are educational in nature. This is a way to
provide an educational experience to doctors in a form that they enjoy. It also allows easy
distribution via the web or by direct distribution to doctors.

Engaging and Entertaining Media Communications
From Virtual Journeys through the body and Virtual Debates that poll physicians to Wii-based Exhibits
and Case Simulations, these interactive programs communicate effectively while also being fun! After
all, doctors learn best when they become fully absorbed in the message and the media.
