I have had very good success using Classroom & web-based Games from LearningWare, Inc. (www.learningWare.com). They are very easy to customize to any content & media, and are extremely effective in engaging & motivating my audiences!

Thanks for this Chris.

I’m slowly working my way through the proceedings from the ‘Game Based Learning 2009′ – http://www.gamebasedlearning2009.com/proceedings – and Derek Robinson was very very good.

I am enjoying the Thinking Worlds demo I’ve downloaded, but have some questions I’ll drop you a mail about tomorrow.
