Notas del editor
- Over the last decade the idea that video games can function as effective learning tools has taken hold within dialogues about education and digital media. While early work pointed to the potential these tools hold for informing educational practices, the last two years have seen significant advances in understanding the learning that takes place in games. Several researchers are examining the ability of games to support and promote leadership development. In the summer of 2010, we decided to offer a teen summer camp experience that would further explore teen leadership through a living game experience.
