Steven Isaacs on 05 Nov 13"In this chapter, we (Steinkuehler and Squire) review studies of videogames and learning, organized in terms of the functional roles in which videogames are typically positioned: (2.1) as content providers, (2.2) as bait for other forms of valuable intellectual activity, (2.3) as vehicles for assessment, or (2.4) as architectures for engagement whose design characteristics can be applied to other content and/or activity domains. We close with a discussion of the recent debate on evidence and the current challenges and trends in the area." (Steinkuehler & Squire, 2013)
