AACTE Handbook of Games

For anyone interested, the Handbook first draft is coming out today. I have a list of authors to share it with, but if you are interested and do not get contacted by me today, please email me (dgibson at simschool dot org) to join the conversation.

Game Changers for Education - Gerald Knezek and I put some ideas together for a conference in Sydney. These concepts are a kind of backdrop to our thinking about the role of games and simulations in the transformation of education. There is quite a distance between making and using games and sims and the ideas contained here (which are "game changers" in a broader sense), but I thought some people might find it useful.

Its great to see so many joining the fray. I have started to edit the Google docs - feel free to do the same. I have also written to my colleague Gerald Knezek about what steps to take next. I'll send out news when he and I confer.

Yay! Thanks, David, for putting this together!

This is going to be great!

Thanks for starting this group David. the presentation at VWBPE blew me away!

This was an epic keynote - this is an epic adventure!

Greetings all. Collaboration of ideas is what I do at the Roadside Philosophers.

Here are a few references from my collection. I'll look forward to seeing things that you have found interesting!
