Cindy,
This is try two. I checked out your UNC gaming site. WOW! I have been opposed to gaming as a way of instruction as my past experiences have always been with games that rank the grades of the students so that only one or two students can get A's, B's, etc. If the new types of games can provide a way of students receiving grades that are not ranked or on a curve, I'll be interested in trying games again.
I'll be checking your blog a lot now to see what other innovations you find.

Awesome find, Cindy! I am intrigued by UNCG's ECON course. Their entry page drew me right in.
