![Teen Halloween Party (2008) with videogames at the John C. Fremont Public Library. The library may well be the last safe, noncommercial space left in a community that is open to all, with no barrier to entry for anyone, in which diverse groups of people interact together in ways they don’t anywhere else. A 2008 Pew Internet and American Life Project report Teens, Video Games, and Civics found that many experiences in game play are similar to classroom-based civic learning opportunities. Those playing games often simulate civic action, help or guide other players, participate in guilds or other groups associated with the game, learn about social issues, and grapple with ethical issues. “When we talked to the children, they viewed video game play as largely a social activity, not an isolating one. It did more than provide a topic of conversation; it provided a structure through multiplayer games in which they practiced and improved their verbal communication skills.” —Lawrence Kutner and Cheryl Olson, Grand Theft Childhood: The Surprising Truth about Violent Video Games and What Parents Can Do (New York: Simon &Schuster, 2008), Kindle Locations 3676, 3717, 3855. The course laid out across the upper floor of the Downers Grove Public Library.

CMS 498: Media
This document discusses various forms of media and their influence on society. It examines how media can shape societal norms and perceptions through both passive conformity and active interpretation by audiences. While some argue media maintains the status quo, others believe audiences engage with media creatively. The document also explores how media often reflects a male perspective, and discusses developing a critical viewpoint to identify and transform underlying messages.
Ltr2 - Gaming and Libraries
This document discusses lessons learned about gaming in libraries from several case studies. It finds that offering gaming programs can attract new patrons to the library and encourage civic engagement for youth. When done right, gaming events can transform perceptions of the library and boost its reputation in the community. The document also examines concerns about violent games but finds little evidence that they cause behavioral problems for most children. It suggests libraries are well-positioned to provide gaming experiences in a safe, non-commercial environment.

The document discusses how play is important for people of all ages, not just children. It summarizes research showing how play helps humans develop skills like problem-solving and social interaction. The Sunnyvale Public Library has started offering gaming programs for adults as well as children in order to provide these benefits to the whole community. They offer a variety of games like board games, video games and puzzles. Their marketing considers that many adults see games as a waste of time but they can also promote skills like teamwork. Assessment of the programs uses surveys and reviews to gather feedback from participants.
The Games Libraries Play (And How They
The document discusses how libraries and schools are using electronic games and gaming to engage students and enhance learning. It provides examples of libraries hosting gaming clubs and schools integrating games into subjects like science, physical education, and literacy. The document advocates that games can help students learn by doing rather than just learning about topics, and can motivate students to engage with curricula when presented in a language they understand.

The document discusses research on the differences in how young adult men and women seek and interact with information and libraries. Some key differences mentioned include:
- Young men prefer quick access to information, dislike research processes, and prefer non-fiction. Young women are more patient with research and prefer fiction.
- Different strategies can be used to attract young people to libraries, including programming tailored to their interests, incorporating popular media like gaming, and soliciting teen input on program design.
- Research also suggests benefits of gaming like improved cognitive skills, and gaming provides access to information in a format many teens enjoy. As such, gaming could be a useful addition to young adult library spaces and programs.

is the author of Jeremy Rifkin The Age of Access and many other books about the impact of scientific,
technological, and cultural changes on the economy, society, and the environment.
People all over the world are preoccupied with developing new technologies for communicating with one
another, but while people are communicating more, they seem to be having more trouble expressing
themselves. Furthermore, future generations seem doomed to lose emotional attachments with their
fellow human beings. To help with this problem, researchers are trying to develop computerized virtual
characters who can recognize human emotions and respond accordingly. Such technological
pretensions are both sad and frightening.
Over the past 20 years or so [since 1986], we have been preoccupied with developing new ways of
communicating with each other. Our cellphones, computers, Blackberries, text messaging, e-mail and the
Internet connect 25 percent of the human race in a speed-of-light global village.
At the same time that we are connecting the central nervous system of our species in an electronic embrace, the
human vocabulary is plummeting all over the world, making it more difficult to express ourselves. It appears that
we are all communicating more, but saying less.
Declining Literacy, Growing Loneliness
According to a national survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Education [DOE], English literacy among
college graduates has declined dramatically in the past 10 years [since 1996]. Only 31 percent of college
graduates today are proficient in English literacy, compared with 40 percent just a decade ago. Grover J.
Whitehurst, the director of the DOE Institute responsible for overseeing the National Assessment of Adult
Literacy, said that he believes that literacy is declining as a result of the increase in television viewing and surfing
the Internet.
Worse, it seems the more connected we are in our electronic landscapes, the lonelier we find ourselves. A study
by the Kaiser Family Fund showed that American children now spend an average of 6.5 hours per day watching
television, surfing the Internet, text messaging and playing with video games and other electronic media. More
worrisome, the study found that most children interact with electronic media alone.
Our children are losing the emotional attachments that come with face-to-face participation with their fellow
human beings. Nor are American youngsters an anomaly. Children in other high-tech countries are following
close on the heels of their American peers. This new condition can be described as the "high-tech blues."

From Mobile Games to Playful Communication: Play in Everyday Life
This document discusses the increasing prevalence of play and games in everyday life, especially through mobile devices. It notes that nearly all Finns play games and most play digital games on mobile devices. It explores how games and playful communication are becoming integrated into other activities and can take many forms beyond traditional games. The document also examines examples of playful mobile apps and communications and discusses directions for developing games literacy and empowering playful, creative activities.
A13-Debate erasmus Italy
The document discusses the educational value of traditional games compared to modern video games and technologies. It argues that traditional games encourage socialization, creativity, imagination, and physical development more than many video games. Traditional games help children learn skills like cooperation, competition, and following rules. While modern technologies are prevalent, the document advocates finding a balance between tradition and modernity in children's play.

Methodologies for Experimental Game Design
This document discusses using alternate reality games (ARGs) and game-based learning to explore issues of identity and social engagement. It presents research questions about how young people navigate race, class, gender and sexuality through online and offline game play, and how game play can translate to real-world social issue engagement. The proposed methodology includes experimental ethnography, community-based research, and analyzing participant design journals, game reflections, and a culturally relevant ARG called "The Resisters". The goal is to understand identity exploration through games and games' pedagogical potential for culturally relevant learning experiences.
Beyond Gaming
The document discusses ways for libraries to engage teens through gaming programs and services. It provides examples of libraries that have started weekly gaming tournaments between teens and police officers, which has led to improved relationships and a reduction in problem behavior reports. The document also summarizes research finding benefits of gaming, such as enhanced surgical skills from doctors who regularly play video games. It encourages libraries to consider daily gaming programs and services to attract teens and help them develop important skills.
Digitalpresentation
The document discusses the rise in popularity of video games and the debate around the effects of violent video games on childhood development. It notes that as the audience for games has grown, more games are rated for adults over 17 years old. Some research suggests that violent video games can desensitize players or increase aggressive behaviors in children, while other research is contradictory. The Supreme Court rejected arguments that violent video games cause real-life violence when striking down a California law imposing fines for selling violent games to minors.
Learning through play
Games and crowdsourcing can be used for adult education in libraries in several ways:
1) Games like Foldit and EteRNA allow players to contribute to scientific research while playing, offering opportunities for library programming.
2) The Ann Arbor District Library runs a successful summer game that encourages community engagement and exploration of library collections and services.
3) Crowdsourcing projects involving tasks like correcting texts or transcribing ship logs harness people's interest while providing data for research.
Gaming and education overview
This document provides an overview of gaming and its potential applications for education. It discusses the history and genres of gaming, the growth of virtual worlds and multiplayer online games, and research on how games can be used to develop important skills. The document also examines challenges in integrating games into education and different strategic options institutions have for doing so, such as using off-the-shelf games, faculty-developed games, or partnerships with external organizations.
