Quotes that I enjoyed reading

"Games are about new world, new identities, and opportunities for new experiences. This of course, what good literature does, but games have the power to make you, the player, an actor, and co-creator of the world" Gee 2003

"Are we going to use games just to get schools better at skill-and-drill or are we going to use them to get students to think deeply about the meaning of knowledge in different domains?" Gee

"Students abilities to integrate various in-and-out of school literacy practices, as well as literacy conventions of various subject areas, was much more sophisticated than the tasks required by so many school-based assessments" Mahar 2003

"Students should be using technology, texts, and games in an integrated way" Gee, 2003

"I must confront new ways of thinking and a new language much like an immigrant who has come to a new a country" Lori Norton-Meier
