The Beginnings

I do extensive reading on current trends in education and found educational gaming to be on the forefront. of much research. This research has found that engaging students in entertaining formats with standards based content really improved student achievement. I thought I 'd like to try that. I asked my colleague if she'd be willing to work with me on "something." and Antarctica: The Game was born--well, at least the idea was born.

I mentioned this to my boss who took the initiative and contacted Dr. Bill Sams who gave us the names of people who might help us. And so the saga begins.
