After thinking about Downes' rules of technology and how the smart phone just may be the answer, I decided to revisit Marc Prensky's web site. I started to make connections between gaming and learning when I read Prensky's Digital Game Based Learning, while I was trying to finish an MA in Distance Education. (which I did). I also recommend "Don't bother me Mom, I am Learning and his latest book, Teaching Digital Natives. Prensky was also the first person to truly call for the integration of cell phones into schools with him seminal article, What Can You Learn From a Cell Phone?-Almost Anything!. Explore his web site!
