Get in the game! The research is clear: human beings are born to play. In Game On? Brain On!, Lindsay Portnoy unpacks the games and playful experiences that invite engagement and deep learning. Using cognitive science to explore the ways in which play helps students acquire and maintain critical skills, Portnoy shows how inviting creativity and excitement into the classroom results in big gains for everyone. She also shares how, by being intentional, educators can create equitable access to playful learning experiences for all children. Through relatable vignettes, ready-to-use examples, and informative "Level Up" toolboxes, Portnoy empowers educators to teach a better way--through play! "Whether you're a n00b or a pro, you'll gain a deeper appreciation for what happens in the mind when engaged in play." --Amber Coleman-Mortley, director of social engagement, iCivics "Lindsay Portnoy brilliantly shows us why and how to bring play's power into classrooms through games." --Peter Gray, research professor of psychology at Boston College "Lindsay Portnoy does a wonderful job emphasizing the importance of play in learning and how we need to ensure that we are addressing equity in terms of play." --Steve Isaacs, teacher, game design and development, Bernards Township Public Schools "Game On? Brain On! is guaranteed to make you feel good while learning about play--just like a great, fun game!"--Dr. Kat (Karen) Schrier, author of Knowledge Games

Making a successful video game is hard. Even games that are successful at launch may fail to engage and retain players in the long term due to issues with the user experience (UX) that they are delivering. The game user experience accounts for the whole experience players have with a video game, from first hearing about it to navigating menus and progressing in the game. UX as a discipline offers guidelines to assist developers in creating the experience they want to deliver, shipping higher quality games (whether it is an indie game, AAA game, or "serious game"), and meeting their business goals while staying true to their design and artistic intent. In a nutshell, UX is about understanding the gamer’s brain: understanding human capabilities and limitations to anticipate how a game will be perceived, the emotions it will elicit, how players will interact with it, and how engaging the experience will be. This book is designed to equip readers of all levels, from student to professional, with neuroscience knowledge and user experience guidelines and methodologies. These insights will help readers identify the ingredients for successful and engaging video games, empowering them to develop their own unique game recipe more efficiently, while providing a better experience for their audience. Key Features Provides an overview of how the brain learns and processes information by distilling research findings from cognitive science and psychology research in a very accessible way. Topics covered include: "neuromyths", perception, memory, attention, motivation, emotion, and learning. Includes numerous examples from released games of how scientific knowledge translates into game design, and how to use a UX framework in game development. Describes how UX can guide developers to improve the usability and the level of engagement a game provides to its target audience by using cognitive psychology knowledge, implementing human-computer interaction principles, and applying the scientific method (user research). Provides a practical definition of UX specifically applied to games, with a unique framework. Defines the most relevant pillars for good usability (ease of use) and good "engage-ability" (the ability of the game to be fun and engaging), translated into a practical checklist. Covers design thinking, game user research, game analytics, and UX strategy at both a project and studio level. Offers unique insights from a UX expert and PhD in psychology who has been working in the entertainment industry for over 10 years. This book is a practical tool that any professional game developer or student can use right away and includes the most complete overview of UX in games existing today.

Every child needs love and physical care, but also play that stimulates their thinking and helps boost their brain power. By playing with parents, grandparents and carers children can build their social and creative skills and get the mental stimulus that develops their brains. In Brain Games for Your Child Robert Fisher draws on his thirty years of research into children's thinking and learning to provide over 200 games to help children to build their thinking, number, language and social skills.From music and art games, treasure hunts and card games, word games and number battles there are games that can be played by all the family that will create bonds and build memories and help boost your child's brain power. Included are old favourites as well as new games, but what is common to all the games is interaction with other people, rather than with electronic screens, where communicating and playing with others provides the basis for developing the full range of a child's abilities.Brain Games for Your Child provides games to create a happy learning environment, encouraging educational skills through games that are fun. It provides a wealth of games to play with children of all abilities during the all-important first 10 years of life. This is an essential guide for raising a happier, brighter and more sociable child.

Cross Examination (The Mystery Game that Improves Your Brain) is the literary version of Milton Bradley's Crack The Case game. It is a fascinating brain game of solving intriguing mysteries that two or more people can play—instantly—that requires no training, no cards, no dice, no table, no little plastic pieces/parts, no fake money, no gimmicks and no substantial investment. It's enjoyed equally by both sexes and the young and old. It can be played as a book, e-book, on your cell phone, computer or mobile device, and it can be played anywhere—in the car on family trips, in the office during breaks, long distance or in the flesh. It can be played by families, couples or teams, and—this is the real bonus--it can be played either competitively or simply for fun. Cross Examination (the book) was licensed to Milton Bradley (Hasbro), which converted the book into a boxed game (“Crack the Case”) in 1993, which has consistently been awarded 5-star status by the game gurus around the world. The game's inventor, Robert R. Schoch (www.RobertRSchoch.com) has reprised the game of logical/forensic mystery solving both because it was never published, and because the world and media are now swirling with games designed to improve brain function and forestall the onset of age-related dementia. Recent university studies (e.g. Stanford University, 2013) are proving that exercising the brain with “brain games” improves brain functioning. Cross Examination is uniquely designed to exercise the brain (in a process we call “Cognitive Calisthenics” ™) and improve the all-important brain function known as “Executive Cognition”, that being the “problem-solving” faculty of the brain. But, compared to other so-called “brain games” presently on the market, Cross Examination provides a mystery-guessing game format that involves playing the game with other people, and not just by and with yourself with an electronic “device” in your hand. Cross Examination is a blast to play---not just exercise but actually fun---and it can uniquely be played either competitively or just for fun. And it's the only game we know of that can be played quite effectively and delightfully …. in the dark. The feature of Cross Examination that makes it unique among the brain game offerings of companies like Lumosity is the "socializing feature" - Simply put, Cross Examination is ALWAYS played with OTHER PEOPLE. It is this "socializing factor" that lends Cross Examination that "added cognitive oomph"—PLAIN FUN-- and efficacy which its celebrated fan, sponsor and advocate, Dr. Paul Nussbaum (author of "Save Your Brain" and President/founder of the Brain Health Center, Inc., www.PaulNussbaum.com) teaches is so important to improving cognitive function and increasing cognitive resilience. Cross-Examination is a game that everyone who plays “wins” regardless of the score at the end because (1) It's fun whether you win or lose, and (2) You get smarter in the process of playing it.And it's the only brain game that can be played in the dark!
