]]> Comment on CIV in the Classroom by Dona Cady http://beyondthescreen.wordpress.com/2007/09/09/civ-in-the-classroom/#comment-2 Dona Cady Fri, 14 Sep 2007 14:53:30 +0000 http://beyondthescreen.wordpress.com/2007/09/09/civ-in-the-classroom/#comment-2 Ah...the value of a good surprise, Don. Though your experiences in Civilization occured back in 1991, I think the truths of your findings are still with us today. When we and another colleague used WoW in the Science Fiction and Fantasy literature course, most students caught the excitement we ourselves experienced, but some did not -- primarily the women who asked for alternative assignments. We also saw that the technical -- even physical requirements -- of the game played a large role in how each student responded to the assignments. So, technology may have changed but the basic human response to it really hasn't. Ah…the value of a good surprise, Don.
