jam today methodJamToday aims to turn educators and
learning professionals into educational designers with the help of game design
knowledge and practice. Equally, we wish for learners to embrace game-
based thinking and become ICT practitioners instead of merely users,
with a corresponding ability to express themselves in videogames as a medium.
