Making the Case for Game-Based Learning: Why and How

Thursday, December 6, 2012- 4pm / Eastern Time

In This Session
The learning games movement has blossomed from infancy into…an awkward teen. Learning games are no longer a novelty, but they’re still far from reaching mainstream status (and their full potential). As the movement gains momentum and new products hit the market, it becomes increasingly difficult to separate hyperbole from quality. The result is a complicated landscape that’s difficult for educators to navigate. In edWeb.net’s next webinar, Filament Games CEO Dan White and educator Tammie Schrader will offer guidance and inspiration for teachers who are trying to add more game-based learning to their classrooms. Leveraging a decade of experience, Dan will offer a jungle-safari-style tour of the learning games space, detailing the myriad forces (assessment, economics, competing design philosophies, etc.) that are shaping it. Tammie will then offer a best-practices-oriented, first-hand account of her experience integrating learning games into a classroom curriculum. Join Dan and Tammie on December 6th to learn the why and how of game-based learning.
