Alvermann, Donna E.; Huddleston, Andrew; Hagood, Margaret C. – Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 2004
At first glance, any connection between professional wrestling and school-based literacy practices might seem far-fetched, or incongruous at best. This seeming incongruity, however, is what intrigues the authors most. It is also what drives them to wonder if governmental and media sources that regularly proclaim a crisis in literacy achievements…

Begg, Michael; Dewhurst, David; Macleod, Hamish – Innovate: Journal of Online Education, 2005
The term "game-based learning" has emerged as a general name for the use of computer games in education.
