The latest edition of Interface Magazine is about to hit all schools in New Zealand in time for the start of term 2.  In this edition of the magazine is my latest article written for them.  You can read it here http://www.interfacemagazine.co.nz/articles.cfm?c_id=26&id=432 The article discusses the huge potential that gaming and problem solving has in the classroom.  I have just spent a week in the South Island on the westcoast in Greymouth and Westport working with students and teaching them how to problem solve through using Gamemaker as a vehicle.  I have encouraged those students who I worked with to send me their completed work and have promised to publish their work onto the wiki that I produced for the event.  One student has already sent his work through and you can see his work and download it for your own gaming pleasure from the following wiki:  http://westcoast2010.wikispaces.com/Gamemaker Whilst you are there you might also like to look at some of the other work that I did whilst I was there.  I am currently uploading to http://blip.tv a video of one of the presentations I made and will embed this into the relevant wiki page in due course.
