This is a brief summary of the Games for a Digital Age report released by the Joan Ganz Cooney Center (Sesame Workshop related) on the challenges facing Digital Educational Games market. I recommend linking through to the full report. I am curious to know what the class thinks of the recommendations the report makes. One thing they emphasize is situating games as supplementary material - do you think this is a good thing/bad thing?

An intriguing essay calling for an end to the demarcation between online (digital) and offline (face-to-face). This author argues that the two do not exist in a vacuum, but rather are enmeshed completely in our lives, such that online activity, used appropriately, should not detract from offline use, but rather give it meaning.

In this talk, Csikzentmihalyi goes further than describing flow as an important experience for intrinsic motivation. Is happiness a state of flow too? It is an interesting perspective though I'm sure it's not the only perspective.

Thanks for sharing Malik. I think this article provides a nice overview of flow and one main takeaway was the importance of positive affect. I agree that it is a good predictor of flow in an activity.

shared by Lisa Schnoll on 08 Feb 13 - No Cached

On a marketing level, barriers to access have largely disappeared. In the old days, games were played on CD-ROMs, and few classrooms had computers. When Internet-delivered games first came out, schools had inadequate bandwidth, they struggled with administrative permissions issues, and there were not enough computers to go around. Now, computers are ubiquitous, broadband is standard, and permissions controls have been mastered.
