WHY GAMES AND VIRTUAL
                    WORLDS?

"...the designers of many
good games have hit on
profoundly good methods of
getting people to learn
and to enjoy learning."

James Gee, University of
Madison Wisconsin
WHY GAMES AND VIRTUAL
             WORLDS?
 Learning works best when challenges are
 "pleasantly frustrating" in the sense of
 being felt at the outer edge of, but within
 their "regime of competence." That is, these
 challenges feel hard, but doable." (Gee,
 2007, p. 36)
WHY GAMES AND VIRTUAL
                         WORLDS?
"Today's game designers have
figured out something today's
educators are still searching for:
how to make learning
engaging for today's kids.
It would be a shame not to
employ this knowledge in our
classrooms."

Marc Prensky
