A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries. Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Chronicle of Higher Education Post. Blog, part of the Chronicle of Higher Education has an interesting post. Today on games in the classroom. It's just the first part of a series. I look forward to the related upcoming posts. I also want to read Kurt Squire's new book that is referenced. I've read several of his articles and he is often cited in the articles I read. So please cross your fingers for me! Looking at games in li...

A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries. Friday, July 15, 2011. I'm working my way slowly through. I'm a big fan of Trefry. After listening to his presentation at ALA Techsource. One of the most useful (and distracting! Symphony at the end of each level with stars and rainbows and glitter, gives the player a feeling of accomplishment. Fun game on computer, but doesn't translate well to mobile phones as player must use finger, which blocks view. Plants vs. Zombies. Turning everyday activitie...

http://gamesinlibraries.blogspot.com/2011/12/upcoming-games-article.html
A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries. Thursday, December 1, 2011. While I included this in my list of resources for my Library 2.011 presentation (recording available), I'd like to separately state that I have had a manuscript approved for publication in Reference Services Review.

A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries: June 2010
http://gamesinlibraries.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries. Monday, June 28, 2010.

A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries: Back from NASAGA
http://gamesinlibraries.blogspot.com/2011/10/back-from-nasaga.html
A Spoonful of Sugar: Instructional Games in Libraries. Tuesday, October 11, 2011. I got a ton of ideas. A few I will share here include:. Games are an experience more than a thing. Games should strive to empower players. Collective intelligence is infinitely better than individual intelligence. We should strive to promote oxytocin (the cuddle hormone) in the brain, not cortisol (anger, stress hormone). Got some ideas for pirating other people's games for work purposes. Tuesday, October 11, 2011.
