I’m working on a new game. A poetic version of Scrabble or Bananagrams<\/a>, perhaps. Not quite sure if anything will come of it or if it’s even anything other than a connect-the-dots, writing-exercise solitaire. As I work through more exercises like these, I’ll likely only post those that are somewhat playable. I will also be unveiling a new space for research & dissertation discussion in the next week or two.<\/p>\n

I’m getting tired reading different understandings of what constitutes a “game” as both “play” and “competition” or what have you. As I think about applicability in the classroom, I wonder what makes a game “fun” for you?<\/p>\n

Tell people this is awesome:<\/h3>
