Video Games in Education
Here's a cool video clip that I came across on Google Video today. The topic is video games in education - it's 23 minutes long, and is produced by the Orange County District Office of Education in the US. It provides a pretty good overview for educators who haven't been exposed to thinking about the use of video games in education, or for those who want to understand more about the potential for learning of these games. There are some useful comments in the video by acknowledged experts in the field, including Dr James Gee and Dr Henry Jenkins, Clarke Aldridge & others.

the embedded Google videos work differently to the YouTube ones - try clicking the 'play' arrow at the bottom instead of simply clicking on the graphic. If that fails, click on the "Google Video" logo at the bottom right and it will take you to the video on the Google site which you should be able to play OK
