A three-year study of 491 middle school students found that the more children played computer games the higher their scores on a standardized test of creativity-regardless of race, gender, or the kind of game played. Everyone is gifted and talented.

A great article on what it means to be a connected educator. My favourite quote: "I am no longer an island of competence, limited by context, geography, training or experience. I am connected, and I am growing!"

The golden rule of social play is not ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’ Rather, it’s something much more difficult: ‘Do unto others as they would have you do unto them.’ To do that, you have to get into other people’s minds and see from their points of view. Children practise that all the time in social play.

where adults are in charge, they make decisions for children and solve children’s problems. In play, children make their own decisions and solve their own problems.
