      The International of Game-Based Learning (IJGBL) is devoted to the theoretical and empirical understanding of game-based learning. They basically trying to promote knowledge pertinent to the design of Game Based Learning environments, and to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the field of Game-Based Learning.

    This talks about IJGBL, a study completely devoted to understanding GBM and promote its design and future. They hope to identify, explain, and improve the interaction between learning outcomes and motivation in video games, and to promote best practices for the integration of video games in instructional settings. This provides students, researchers, instructors, and policymakers with valuable information in GBM and increases their understanding in designing, developing, and deploying successful educational games.

  • 1. Analytics will be huge in education and are coming faster than almost anyone can anticipate. 2. Analytics are growing in prominence in many different disciplines and from all parts of the education system. Researchers from different fields found shared space in the analytics discussion. Are analytics the “universal decoder” for education reform? 3. Ethics are going to be an enormous concern. We all acknowledged it. No clear way forward exists at this stage. 4. Analytics can be applied across the full spectrum of education: for teachers, learners, administrators, policy makers, and government officials. 5. Student success, based partly in adaptive and personal learning, is a substantial motivator for foundations, administrators, and politicians. Under various covers (college completion, accountability, increased institutional effectiveness) analytics will be appropriated to serve numerous ideals, causes, and visions. 6. Brace yourself for the usual hype cycle: analytics will be everything, they will cure all ails, they will transform education, they will [_____]. Purchase your Batman Consultant-Repellant spray now.

The B-School Case Study Gets a Digital Makeover - Businessweek - 0 views

      Starting out how tablets are so easy to use instead of sifting through 500 pages to find case studies and course materials
  • Next, Okun unsheathes the alternative: an iPad (AAPL) edition of the same course materials—a feature NYU introduced last year. In each digital case study, students can highlight material in fluorescent colors and take notes. A tap on the screen allows them to skip to an exhibit at the end of a document, and then follow the menu back to where they left off reading—with no virtual or actual page-leafing required. All the features work offline.
  • Over the ensuing 87 years, the case study has undergone some changes but remains much as it was at its inception—a straightforward narrative of business success or failure. Tablet technology may make the case study more of an interactive experience.

  • arvard Business School, the largest publisher of case studies in North America, is in the process of converting 3,500 of its files to tablet-enhanced formats during this school year and expects to finish converting its library of 17,000 titles by 2013.
  • The tablet medium also seems ideal for simulated cases, says Glenn Rowe, a professor at the Ivey school and author of nearly 40 case studies. In role-playing exercises, prices and other variables can change on the fly. Students may also be smacked with unexpected events, such as their biggest competitor slashing prices, or by their receiving a higher-than-expected counterbid after a merger proposal. Students choose what they would do, and the simulation immediately tells them the consequence of that action.

  • Students are also more inclined to use tablets for supplemental reading. (Assuming prices are the same, 86 percent of college students say they prefer a hard copy textbook to an e-textbook, according to the market research firm Student Monitor.)

  • Learning analytics promises to harness the power of advances in data mining, interpretation, and modeling to improve understandings of teaching and learning, and to tailor education to individual students more effectively. Still in its early stages, learning analytics responds to calls for accountability on campuses across the country, and leverages the vast amount of data produced by students in day-to-day academic activities. While learning analytics has already been used in admissions and fund-raising efforts on several campuses, “academic analytics” is just beginning to take shape

    It's called "The Internet of Things" -- at least for now. It refers to an imminent world where physical objects and beings, as well as virtual data and environments, all live and interact with each other in the same space and time. In short, everything is interconnected.

Not only does this article discuss the benefits, but it also discusses the issues associated with this trend.
