Weekly Play- meme

Well, this is it. It's finally the end. Did I make it to the end? I'm not sure. But it sure feels like I lived through quite a journey. Feeling quite tired. Anyone else feels it with me? I'm afraid to look in the mirror in case I actually don't recognize myself. I sacrificed quite …

Games in the Classroom: yes or no?

When the article was going into details about the games, I at first thought that for sure that is a great way. But after previewing some of the games, I'm not too sure about how valid this lesson plan would be. I'm afraid that students would be too focused on that to focus on anything …

Why Gaming Helps Students Learn

I agreed with basically everything that was said in the article, although I think that there are other circumstances that can prevent kids from learning through the gaming method.

The one resource that i really liked was through the Yahoo question and answer  platform. I created a yahoo account solly for that purpose.
