ISBN: 9781433109058 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Some educational researchers claim that videogames can energize learning in both traditional and non-traditional contexts; cultivate skills more useful to a changing economy; and present information in ways more appealing to students.

The Work of Play is an attempt to describe such learning on the micro-level, capturing the moment-by-moment interactions between players and showing how meanings are shaped over time. It builds on...

From writing as...

From Digital to Analog delves into the origins of digitization and its effects on contemporary culture. The book challenges the -common sense- assertion that digitization is just another step in the evolution of the culture of the editorial, film and recorded music industries and their enforcement of copyright laws. Digital technologies in contemporary culture have paradoxically undermined and, at the same time, strengthened such practices, provoking an unprecedented quarrel over the possession of, and access to, cultural products. Agustin Berti uses the release of Agrippa (A Book...
