Digital-Based Games• Games that utilize technology but include non-digital
components
• Often created by instructors for their contexts
• Technology integral to game

Sample from Collaborative WikiHelena Slogar is an eccentric inventor who has a particular love for dead people’s organs. She poisoned her husband a short while after they were married, because she wanted to study his brain. She preserved her husband’s brain in a box locked in the closet. One day, her daughter was able to steal the key and sneak into the closet, where she found the brain labeled as “Lord Slogar”. She reported to the police and the police put Mrs. Slogar into prison. In prison, Mrs. Slogar was infected with measles and died miserably! If she hadn't been arrested, she could have killed more innocent people...

“Think of [technology] as a learning tool, not a
teaching tool. Become fascinated with how
learning can improve the lives of your students,
not the technology. Technology is adaptable—
force your will on it.”
—Terry Heick on Emerging EdTech

“Professional Development offerings
are desperately needed as ways to
provide basic games literacy as well
as to help develop teachers who
can add this new medium to
their repertoire.”
(Becker, 2007)
