How can we make sure that our children are learning to be creative thinkers in a world of global competition - and what does that mean for the future of education in the digital age? David Williamson Shaffer offers a fresh and powerful perspective on computer games and learning. How Computer Games Help Children Learn shows how video and computer games can help teach children to build successful futures - but only if we think in new ways about education itself. Shaffer shows how computer and video games can help students learn to think like engineers, urban planners, journalists, lawyers, and other innovative professionals, giving them the tools they need to survive in a changing world. Based on more than a decade of research in technology, game science, and education, How Computer Games Help Children Learn revolutionizes the ongoing debate about the pros and cons of digital learning.

Based on the author's experiences as parents, teacher, economist, and school board member, this book is for teachers, parents, and administrators about the most fundamental, basic element in any good school, the time of a good teacher. Teacher Time's message is simple. American students need more of each teacher's time. Teachers need more time to spend on each student, time to plan, grade papers and make decisions about resources. America must adopt and pay for the model used for public schools in the rest of the developed world, where teachers teach many less class hours. In Teacher Time, classroom stories reveal the nature of the American School, the teacher's job, how little time a teacher has for each child, and how school management affects the quality of the teacher's time with students. A "homework" section helps readers take the book into their school and school district, to take steps toward providing more quality teacher time for each child in America. (The book's) cogent argument and evidence for the centrality of teachers and the time they must have should give readers pause as they listen to the current debate over high-stakes testing, social promotion, and accountability.
