How, if at all, did Play@Pyle change the way you
think about teaching and learning with games and
simulations?

“With the campus buzz about Liberal Education and
LEAP's discussion of bringing education to the students
level and to engage them through life-long-learning
techniques I thought some of the games really do a good
job of carrying this out.”

“I appreciate Play@Pyle so much--it's not just the great
demos and the great talks, it's the people who come to it. I
ended up having several stimulating conversations that
will have future effects on my work. This is a really
efficient, stimulating, encouraging and positive
professional development opportunity!”
