MindShift Guide to Digital Games and Learning<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

How can games unlock a rich world of learning? This is the big question at the heart of the growing games and learning movement that\u2019s gaining momentum in education. The MindShift Guide to Digital Games and Learning [PDF]<\/strong><\/a> explains key ideas in game-based learning, pedagogy, implementation, and assessment. This guide makes sense of the available research and provides suggestions for practical use.<\/p>\n

The MindShift Guide to Digital Games and Learning started as a series of blog posts written by Jordan Shapiro with support from\u00a0the Joan Ganz Cooney Center<\/a> at Sesame Workshop and the Games and Learning Publishing Council<\/a>. We\u2019ve brought together what we felt would be the most relevant highlights of Jordan\u2019s reporting to create a dynamic, in-depth guide that answers many of the most pressing questions that educators, parents, and life-long learners have raised around using digital games for learning. While we had educators\u00a0in mind when developing this guide, any lifelong learner can use it to develop a sense of how to navigate the games space in an informed and meaningful way.<\/p>\n
