Global Conflicts Portal LogiCity - Introduction | The 21st Century | Scoop.it Quest Atlantis Fallen City: could a game help us find a solution to society's ills? | The 21st Century The city is ruined. Bored and frustrated residents patrol the night streets, windows are smashed, buildings ransacked – there is no will or desire to fix anything or to understand its value. There is no sense of community any more… A year ago, journalist and author Jim Rossignol approached Channel 4's education department with the idea for a game – a game about broken cities. "At the time, the data and research showed that a term-time morning educational TV schedule didn't reach tweens and teens in any significant number," says Alice Taylor, who was education commissioner until earlier this year. The idea of developing online interactive apps was also partly inspired by the burgeoning concept of the newsgame – a form of overtly political computer game written in response to major global events or controversies and distributed freely online. Channel 4 Education has set out to explore moral and social themes involving everything from death to citizenship through its games. Sweatshop
IndustryPlayer.com - Business Simulation Games Urgent Evoke - A crash course in changing the world. | The 21st Century | Scoop.it Climate Quest Wikis in the classroom, 2012 edition | The 21st Century It’s been years now since I’ve written anything here, but a conversation today on the Eighteenth-Century Questions Facebook page made me realize I ought to update my reports from Wikiland. I’ve been using PBworks for wikis since shortly after they began the site in 2005. (NB: I have almost always participated in “private” wikis, not anything searchable, and I guarantee to students that, no, a future employer is not going to read their notes on Moll Flanders.) Some friends and I learned how to use the platform by playing a writing game called Lexicon and by developing an enormous recipe collection with over a hundred participants. In observing my friends’ use of the wikis, I wanted to find out how the platform could be used to encourage students to write more willingly, to read more critically, and to participate in class more enthusiastically. As I reported back in 2007, my first few attempts to include wiki assignments in my classes were failures. That was the first discovery.

Teaching Technologies: Tips and Tools | The 21st Century | Scoop.it Accessibility, Equal Access, and the ADA (part one) Just to get us started, check out these simulations that let you experience the web as a person with a visual disability would: blindness and colorblindness. If a simulation isn’t your thing, you can check out the Web Accessibility Initiative’s draft paper on How People with Disabilities Use the Web. Or you can read this wrap-up on how instructors should respond when a student has a speech impairment. You can also take a quick glance at an article reviewing the accessibility of different college and university websites: And here’s a table ranking schools on their ease of accessibility to blind students. Wow, huh? So, all of this invites the following question: How do you make sure your online resources / your online course meets the needs of all your students? One of the most common questions we get regards how to give a student extra time on an online exam. But going beyond exams, what should one do? 1. 2. 3. 4.

Teach a Kid to Program - Wired How-To Wiki | The 21st Century From Wired How-To Wiki You don't have to be an engineer to program a computer.

In many ways, learning a programming language at a young age equips youth with skills that will be very marketable in the future, no matter what profession they decide on later. It may be intimidating at first, but it's well worth the challenge. Besides, it can be very creative, fun and useful. This article is a wiki.
