Games in the Classroom?

Tim Wilson from EdTech has an article today Video Games as Learning tools and he is definitely on to something. I wrote about this back in February Games in Education because some of my students had expressed interest in becoming the next game makers. The Parsons School of Design is now partnering with my seniors to introduce them to some grad students who are teaching learning while uncovering the gaming industry. Katie Salen is one of the professors who is a gaming enthusiast and creator.
