The Education Arcade
http://www.educationarcade.org/
The Games-to-Teach Project is made possible by a research grant from Microsoft iCampus.
Project activities are coordinated with the Learning Sciences and Technologies Group of Microsoft Research, led by Randy Hinrichs.
The Education Arcade represents a consortium of international game designers, publishers, scholars, educators, and policy makers who are exploring the new frontiers of educational media that have been opened by computer and video games.
The Teachers' Arcade is a group of teachers, educators, and policy makers investigating the potential of using commercial and video games to support learning. Many of us are interested in using games in classrooms, but just as many are thinking of how to use games in home schools, after school centers, and in museum settings. The Teachers' Arcade is a resource for sharing teaching tips, curricular models, lesson plans, and custom game modifications. You can find both practical tips and assistance as well as a supportive community of like-minded teachers.
