FETC Conference
Teachers Do Battle (and Math) at FETC Gaming Tournament
I signed up for the Gaming Tournament and was even interviewed by My Fox News . Tabula Digita, makers of the multiplayer educational game (MEG), DimensionM, held the first-ever State MEG tournament at FETC 2008 in Orlando. With qualifying rounds Thursday, Friday’s championship pitted 11 educators from 10 states against one another in a fast-paced, first person video game environment, for the chance to win valuable prizes, including a site license of the DimensionM game. The catch? They had to do algebra in order to win. I really think the use of “gaming” in the classroom has great possibilities.
