<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><b>Luke Jackson</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">In 2012, Luke co-founded a multimedia company dedicated to producing materials that engage students in immersive educational experiences. These games attracted philanthropic and
government funding to support their development. Luke acted as project manager for 18 months, during which he was in charge of up to 20 artists and programmers working in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Mumbai. In late 2013, Luke began a PhD at Deakin University
to explore the complexities of writing narrative-based educational games. He is now fully immersed in this burgeoning area of inquiry, and regularly speaks with game writers and designers from within the broader games industry and from within the educational
games industry. Luke is the author of five published books, four aimed at teenagers and one aimed at young children. He has also written extensively for Australian education providers.
