	Gamasutra - Features - "Soapbox: Learning to Play to Learn - Lessons in Educational Game Design"
		Educators are energized by games' ability to engage with students, to capture their wayward attention and help them learn in rich and dynamic ways.
		Game designers and developers are increasingly drawn to create educational games as well - perhaps from a desire to make new kinds of games, to create work with a purpose beyond pure entertainment, or even just as an escape from the rigid confines of the mainstream game industry.
		A game that quizzes you on presidents' names or periodic tables is just a gimmicky test, but a game that simulates the planning and execution of your own archeological dig gives you a direct experience of process that a textbook or lecture can't.

	Educational game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Educational games are games; board and card games, including video games that are designed to teach people, typically children, about a certain subject, expand concepts, reinforce development, understand an historical event or culture, or assit them in learning a skill as they play.
		A board game is a game played with counters or pieces that are placed on, removed from, or moved across a "board" (a premarked suface, usually specific to that game).
		Closely related to the use of educational games is the use of what is known as Serious games.

	Serious Games Source: 'Educational Game Development: Partnering with K-12 Schools'
		For the last several years, educational software publishers, such as Tom Snyder Productions, have recognized that the educational software market is potentially lucrative in its own right, so long as the needs of the end users - teachers and students - remain fixed in the developers' crosshairs as the most important ongoing concern.
		Conducting beta tests and focus groups is always a good idea when developing a video game, but it is absolutely essential when developing an educational game whose overriding purpose is to teach a specific skill set and/or content area.
		Open world games, adventure games, driving games, puzzle games, and simulation games with enough thought, each of these genres can find their rightful place in schools, especially when married to content areas that teachers are looking to explore with students in a thoughtful and engaging way.
