I am thrilled to announce that my book is now available. This book is full of lists and practical advice on how to use games in the classroom. It takes you from the theories that underpin both learning and teaching with games to the practical application of these theories. There are dozens of strategies for using games in the classroom and templates to help you design and build lesson plans for single classes or entire courses.
For some sneak peeks – including some of the many images – try here.
How did you choose Springer as the publisher? They have a reputation for pricing their books really high, but not giving the authors that big a cut of the take.
I was invited to contribute to a series.
Their royalty structure isn’t that bad – royalties are not what they used to be, unless you are already a successful author.
I wasn’t excited about the price of the book, but they have a “mycopy” deal where you can order a print version of the eBook through your university (if they have Springerlink) for about $25.
