Games in Education by Sylvia Martinez

It sounds like a simple idea– kids don’t like school… kids like games, so if we sneak some educational content into games, won’t everyone benefit?

I believe that although some of the promise has been oversold, there is much to learn from exploring the educational promise of games in the classroom.
