Opportunities, Obstacles and Outcomes in Educational Gaming: Teaching to the Common Core, 21st Century Skills and Beyond
Abstract
Since the first official spelling bee in 1925, countless American educators have used games in the classroom as a way to foster excitement about learning and engagement with the curriculum. While games have long had a place in schools, the advent of electronic, video and computer-based games in the classroom is a far more recent phenomenon, one that appears to be accelerating as technology becomes ubiquitous in classrooms and homes alike (Squire 2005).
