University of Wisconsin team creates learning games - DeeDee Wojtal, University of Wisconsin-Madison

The University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Educational Psychology has teamed up with the UW System’s Academic Advanced Distributed Learning Co-Lab to create new worlds in which people can learn by exploring and doing. "The Department's Learning Sciences Program studies how human beings learn best," said James Gee, professor in UW-Madison's School of Education. "We have made digital learning technologies, which include video games, one focal point of that program." The Academic Advanced Distributed Learning Co-Lab, established in January 2000, specializes in competency-based modules for worldwide learning that can be utilized anytime and anywhere —in the classroom, in the field and online.
