博客來Jonathan deHaan (Associate Professor, University of Shizuoka) looks at life through a literacy lens. He tries to apply what he’s experienced and learned about games, play, and language (and a bit of life) to his teaching. He used to hype video games; not anymore. He’s working to make himself obsolete through his ＂Game Terakoya＂ playground.
James York plays with many things. Games, taiko, techno, code, and pedagogy. His son is much better than him at Smash Bros., but they both like playing online together. One of his proudest gaming moments is defeating Towerfall Ascensions on Legendary difficulty. He’s designed a few small games and hopes to have his first game (about Japanese politeness levels) published soon. He works at Meiji University, Tokyo, where he teaches and researches the intersection of games and play in educational contexts.
