I have received most of the slides from GDC - I hope that these help all of you. Please feel free to use these ideas in your classroom, but please credit the folks that put these together for you. I would embed them all here, but it would be overload for the blog. Please go to my SlideShare to view the slides & documentation on Mini Games in C++. Also, note the Global Game Jam slides are there as well.
Thank you Joe, Eugene and Darren, Foaad, Ian, Gorm, Anders, Miguel and Zach.
I will add the 2nd part of Jane McGonigal's interview on BoingBoing:
I subscribe to BoingBoing and when I woke up this morning there was a new video they had done at GDC. Imagine my surprise to see our GDC Keynote Jane McGonigal interviewed about her talk that she gave at OUR summit. How cool is that? Xeni & Jane actually indulge in a little Katamari/Slumdog Millionaire "top secret dance off" at the end of the interview. You ladies rock!
You have to love this tool - post your slides and embed - what could be difficult? Oh.. getting the slides from the speakers. As I get the slides, I promise to post them. Here are the slides from Jesse Schell's fantastic keynote:
