Project outline
The aim of this project (2004-2007) is to contribute towards a better understanding of the motivating pleasures (and frustrations) of computer games, in order that their pedagogic potentials might be more effectively exploited. Computer games are analysed from the perspective of the player-as-analyst, as well as through the observation of play, and players. We are examining computer games in homes, in classrooms, and online.
