Ms. Rothman is an Educational Technology Specialist at ACES Playing games and game-design theory are revolutionary to learning and the role of the teacher in the classroom. This session explored how the strategies used in games and game development mimic effective teaching strategies and the ways they are motivating children to learn in the 21st century.

Please post your reflections and knowledge about Ms. Rothman's gaming presentation here:

It was very worthwhile to see how school libraries can connect gaming with learning, higher order thinking skills, and above all 21st century work skills. I am motivated to try and get a gaming center in the library. I am looking for ways to connect with students who are capable yet unmotivated in school. If anyone knows of any research to support this, please post it here. Thanks.
