Chris Harris and company over at the BOCES in Western NY are doing fantastic work on games in K-12. They have a lot of great resources at http://sls.gvboces.org/gaming/ Since there aren’t many folks doing research in this area at this point, one thing I try to avoid is duplicating what others are doing.

I am looking forward to seeing the video! Also, I would be very happy to see gaming in libraries integrated into the iSchool curriculum. Are you planning any research or game development for students in K-8? I'd love to see more work in this area in terms of the impact on motivation and achievement in information literacy for this age group. Looking forward to seeing great things come out of the LGL in the future. Thanks for sharing the experiences. I am looking forward to seeing the video!

As we run on volunteer help, we don't have the manpower nor the continued funding to run game programs for patrons. Our goal is to help you learn how to run your own!
