Syracuse Game Lab


Games are great educational tools, and I'm not the only one who thinks so!

Yes, there are others out there, and if you are looking for resources to make your own case for board games (or games in general), one possible starting point for you is the Syracuse Game Lab.

Thank you to Scott Nicholson for commenting on our earlier blog post sharing with us about his research project at Syracuse University, which is an initiative to increase the use of games and games events in the libraries.

There are also a number of publications on the topic at the Game Lab Web site, so head over and check it out!

    I agree that games can help education. You should look at the trend of gamification as well, we've setup a wiki around the subject to open the topic for discussion and collaboration at http://gamification.org .
