The Role of Tabletop Games in Education

Jump into the Overthrowing Education archives with me in this encore episode!

Engaging educator, author and speaker Antero Garcia discusses how cell phones and games can be used effectively in a class, as well as other important issues surrounding cell use, games and technology. And then Antero nails The 5-Minute Game Show! The fauxmerical parody, “TAC vs. Worksheet” starts us off and we finish with students from St. Mary’s High School in Owen Sound, Ontario sharing the ideas they came up with after analyzing an “anti-cell phone for teens” article on the In the Trenches segment.

Special thanks to Antero, Anna, Max, Eamon, Rachel and Laura Honegger
