Gaming and learning experiences

I enjoyed Andy's discussion on "blog on Edutopia regarding the use of gaming as an educational tool."  I recall reading an artible by Marc Prensky "Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants - part II: Do They Really Think Differently?"

Prensky states that today's learners "cry out for new approaches in education" and this is one of the reasons why "Digital Game-Based Learning is beginning to emerge and thrive."

As I am a "Digital Immigrant" myself, I welcome your dialogue and discussion on this topic!
