It's always kinda sad when summer comes to an end... But that also means that it's time to go back to school!
No matter what form of education you prefer: be it distance learning or good old fashioned classroom think tank -- we always salute your wish to learn something new! We even have a special deal for you (or maybe your significant others) who feels that curiosity itch:
[h3]while True: learn() is 25% off until September 6, 10am PST[/h3]
But learning means always moving towards new horizons. Throughout this summer (and good part of spring) we were looking out for new exciting ways for video games to empower and change modern education for the better.
We have been collaborating with teachers, we've been meeting with ed-tech experts, hey, we've even launched a YouTube show, in which we discuss the future of education with tech-savvy teachers who care.

Like in this episode, we're meeting with Paul Darvasi, an educator with 20+ years of experience, who's now doing a visionnaire job, turning mainstream and indie [url=http://www.ludiclearning.org/]games into school lessons[/url].
And most importantly, we're joined by his 11-years old son Max, with an honest perspective on what is wrong with many of today's "educational games" and how games can and will be transforming classrooms.
With help from all kinds of awesome people from the world of education, we were developing our own attempt to adapt game mechanics to fit into classrooms.
We're talking about [b]Learning Factory EDU[/b], which is meant to improve problem solving skills and introduce engineering practices to middle school children. It comes with teacher guides, and you can [url=https://luden.io/lfedu/]get it on our website. Oh, and it's free for everyone to use![/url]

Please share a link to Learning Factory EDU to anyone interested in applying video games in education, as we're looking for teachers and parents, willing to play it along with their learners and share feedback. This will help us turn LF EDU into a razor-sharp tool carving a way towards new knowledge!
Happy new school year!
