James Gee

-What do you think about his stance on assessment and schooling?

I absolutely agree with James Gee and his belief that the assessment processes at school limit learning in the sense that they does not test physical skill, the act of doing or performing, they only test mental processes and the mind's abilities. Video games are examples of situated or embodied learning, a style which allows students to solve problems with their existing set of tools and knowledge. Video games test the mental capabilities of an individual, as well as the physical motor and coordination skills. 

I also agree with James Gee and the idea that the twenty first century is breeding a customized style of learning; with a foundation of problem solving and digital learning techniques. Video games are generally focused upon a set of problems that must be solved in order to prevail. Incorporating video game strategies and techniques into the regular core content will help students develop a full range of abilities; mental, physical, social, and emotional.
