Ki shares some of his experience from this year’s Game Developers Conference, and the unique and often challenging place that educational games hold in the industry. He and Brian then talk about some of the ways educators and administrators can ascertain whether an educational product is offering a true game-based learning experience, as opposed to a layer of gamification.
