The gaming 'Devils advocate' rides again...

Here's an interesting clip looking at engaging boys in learning and the role gaming might have in the social or cultural context of school as a learning place. I still have conversations with myself on this topic. I am particularly interested in the notion of the gamer culture and the way negative teacher attitudes affects your sense of self and your ideas about the relevance of school to you. I'm still coming down on the side of using their 'culture' and skills as a power for good.......at the moment!
