New Wanna-Be Page Added

I decided that it was time to add a page to this site specifically for people trying to break into the game industry. It doesn't contain a lot of resources just yet, but as I find them, I'll add more.

Computer Games in Schools

University of Stockholm Department of Education, Stockholm, Sweden

This was a small but very informative conference about some of the educational opportunities afforded by bringing computer games into schools. Among other things I got the chance to meet and chat quite a bit with Espen Arseth, the founder of the Game Studies Journal, the first and so far the only peer-reviewed journal on the subject of games. I gave a short lecture called "Using Game Design to Teach Effectively."
