We have been saying it over and over again – mobile learning is here to stay! 8 years back, on 7 th April 2004, we began as a boot-strapped startup. If you are looking to purchase an LMS for the first time – you have begun on the right path. If you are looking to switch to a different LMS, it is great that you are actively using an LMS. Your IT- enabled learning initiative has matured enough for you to understand the gap between what you actually need and what you are getting.
“Oh no” I can hear you say, an article about education . Boring. Yet it should be one of the most exciting things you can read about. It is the education industry and their heritage that have made it boring. And if it is boring for us then just imagine how boring it must be for the victims of our current system. Let’s face it, standing a teacher in front of a class must be one of the most inefficient methods of imparting knowledge ever invented.

Phylo is a project that began as a reaction to the following nugget of information: Kids know more about Pokemon creatures than they do about real creatures * .

The phylo project is the product of the kind and (frankly) amazing contributions of many many individuals who have given art, science expertise, gaming advice, programming chops, and more.

Set The World On Fire: Fate Of The World | Rock, Paper, Shotgun
It’s a good day for the interview to go live, I think. I’ve been following Red Redemption’s global-future strategy game for a while and now – with its release on the horizon and its name settled, I thought it was time to talk to its charismatic founder Gobion Rowlands, Creative Director/Lead Designer Ian Roberts and MD/Producer Klaude Thomas about Fate of The World. We take in everything from the real science behind it to the gloriously apocalyptic actions you can perform to try and save – or destroy – the world. RPS: Anyway, top level first. Care to talk about how the game came about from your previous work? Gobion Rowlands: In 2007 with the help of Myles Allan from the Oxford University Physics Department, we convinced the BBC to sponsor us to make a strategy game called “ Climate Challenge ” in Flash.
