I created this spreadsheet in order to track insights about aspects of MMO game play (example is WoW) that might be reconfigured or repurposed as classroom/school learning structures. The object here is not to necessarily use WoW in school but examine which elements of gameplay translate into new and unique learning experiences online or off. PLEASE ADD YOUR COMMENTS TO THE DOCUMENT. Short URL for sharing here: http://tinyurl.com/27sxnxa

These games can be addictive. They are designed for addiction, much like cigarettes. While there is a considerable amount of thought that goes into the historical accuracy of the images and characters, as well as the depth of the stories, it’s really about getting kids playing and then keeping them there. This is not “casual” gaming. This is the kind of things that makes you question what is real.

GTA IV is its latest incarnation. In its first week of release, it made around $500m. It's been rightly, and widely, proclaimed a masterpiece. And it is - at least technically. As far as the script and storyline goes
