elearning.post: Timely, Relevant and Interesting!

The elearning.post is a worthwhile and relevant site to watch. In the past few days, there have been several relevant and timely articles including a great interview with the author Clark Aldrich. Reading his quotes and opinions in casual prose makes our text, "Simulations and the Future of Learning," come alive.

Another terrific article posted on November 6, 2003 is titled "Games as Roadmaps to the Knowledge Society." In it the following quote can be found:

"Games are becoming ever more popular as tools for learning, both in teaching and the workplaces. Despite major differences of opinion among different disciplines, both researchers and developers agree on one thing: The strength of games is that you learn things in the context in which you use them."

Just when I thought this was plenty, a new post popped up today on the Making of Lego Bricks. The online animations are a marvel for kids of all ages!

Watch the elearning.post for other incredible articles!
