- Give a broad overview here--no details about WWO\n http://www.ted.com/talks/jane_mcgonigal_gaming_can_make_a_better_world.html\n Incorporates problem-solving (how to address the problem through action) and can be described as an example of action learning--i.e. you can't solve a problem alone.  You need to collaborate with experts to come to a greater understanding of the issue. \nMcGonigal focuses on the larger picture of how and why games are relevant.\n \n Asks: How can we capture the positive, emotional qualities of ludic experiences that we get from games? \n The process of leveling through games gives a sense of accomplishment, not because saving a virtual world has “value”, rather the experience of being a part of an ‘epic’ undertaking has meaning.\n By adopting a gameful approach to school (like Q2L), we take some of the best elements of game participation and apply them in ways that make education meaningful and relevant.  It changes the game of education from something that is grade-focused (external reward) to achievement-focused (internal reward).  Gameful approaches to life that involve us in large-scale (epic) pursuits can help to give our lives meaning, particularly if we engage around real-world social problems.  It is us that make the difference—and it is us that benefit from a sense of ‘fiero!’ that comes with knowing that we’ve made a difference\n
- Extends McGonigal’s notion of gameful participation into the classroom--Jane doesn’t discuss teaching & learning per se.\n\nTeaching & learning approach that incorporates use of serious games -- computer game & game methodologies to promote experiential & discovery learning around authentic, real-world problems. \n \n--gameful learning is made possible through crit. thinking, instructor facilitation & student reflection\n\nNext: will show how research perspectives can inform *how* computer-based games might help foster gameful learning.\n
