Going far beyond the first edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Multiplayer Classroom\u003c\/i\u003e, forthrightly examining what worked and what didn't over years of development, here are the tools to design any structured learning experience as a game to engage your students, raise their grades, and ensure their attendance. Suitable for use in the classroom or the boardroom, this book features a reader-friendly style that introduces game concepts and vocabulary in a logical way. Also included are case studies, both past and present, from others teaching in their own multiplayer classrooms around the world. You don't need any experience making games or even playing games to use this book. You don't even need a computer. Yet, you will join many hundreds of educators who have learned how to create multiplayer games for any age on any subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLee Sheldon began his writing career in television as a writer-producer, eventually writing more than 200 shows ranging from \u003ci\u003eCharlie's Angels\u003c\/i\u003e (writer) to \u003ci\u003eEdge of Night\u003c\/i\u003e (head writer) to \u003ci\u003eStar Trek: The Next Generation (\u003c\/i\u003ewriter-producer).
