Session Submission Type: Paper Session
Here we bring together 6 papers about digital media and learning. They cover the gamut from television prompts to promote interaction to learning workplace skill from playing online games, from issue-oriented social networking to programming games and stories. We have organized the session as a structured poster session. Each paper will be allotted 5 minutes to summarize/advertise their poster followed by 30 minutes for attendees to talk in depth at posters. Richard Halverson will provide discussant comments to the whole group followed by Q & A.
