Here are some links ,which seem useful to me so far .

How Can Teachers Prepare Kids for a Connected World

I would like to thank for this amazing article ,I really enjoyed reading it and all the rich ideas that are included ,I loved the comparison between kids when they play games and how  they throw themselves into it without reading any rules and they keep on trying and trying where they can  fail once and twice but they are so determined to succeed. This is why they spend hours and hours playing games to get high scores but on the other hand at school although they are given all the rules and guidance they are not determined to succeed as they do with games,  they always feel that everything they do goes on their academic record and this stops their creativity .
