Games consoles in the classroom

Last weeks session was "games day" a lesson designed to see how computer games could aid learning. We played on Prince of Persia, Little Big Planet, Dance Central, Wii Sports and Sherlock Homes.
Most were very different styles of games, although Wii and Dance were both physcial games. Previously I had agreed that games could be used, then the debate changed my mind. However on playing, it can be seen that they can help in certain areas in the classroom. I really enjoyed dancing. Brought out my feminine side.
