Why video games matter more than ever | Acadia Centre for Critical Play
"In this episode of All Hands on Tech, we sit down with Natalie Swain, Jon Saklofske and Mike Beazley from Acadia University's Acadia Centre for Critical Play to explore why video games deserve a place in conversations about technology, education and culture.
The discussion examines how games have evolved into one of the world's most influential forms of media, the skills they help develop beyond entertainment and the role they play in advancing innovation, accessibility and digital storytelling. The team also shares the vision behind the Acadia Centre for Critical Play and why they believe play will be an increasingly important part of how we learn, work and engage with technology in the years ahead."
