Interesting post - about games in education, but actually about all learning experiences. My next big problem (wrong word?) is how to do this kind of stuff inside a school that's moving very slowly or not at all in this direction. I'm all for being disruptive, but what happens to those students who get taught by me in a student-centered, project based if they then move on to someone who has a more teacher centered approach the following year?

What happens to those students who get taught by me in a student-centered, project based if they then move on to someone who has a more teacher centered approach the following year? They either revert to being passive learners or they demand more from the next teacher who then has a choice.... Also, expectations from whole school need to be cranked up if slow in this regard. (However, I do understand why some schools are finding it hard to move on, it requires energy and drive to do this, things which are being drained from our schools and leaders because of so many pressures and anxieties) . As they say though, our students only get one shot at this ......

I like this - would be great starter for upper KS2 literacy or P4C session I think.

I remember taking ages to create a 'salade de mots' of words for A level topics. Wordle does it for everything & you just paste all the words into it and creates 'wordles'. Apologies if you knew about this.

Wiki style website which has voice overs and interactive presentations instead of written information. Great when you want to direct the pupils towards putting research into their own words as there's nothing to copy and paste!
