On Tuesday 25th November I was able to attend an excellent presentation by Scotsman Derek Robertson on using Nintendo DS games in the classroom. It was a most entertaining and educational session and I was able to come away feeling excited about using these products. I was impressed with the data about student attainment and engagement through these tools. Well worth going to.

Hi Scott,
Unfortunately, I missed Derek's presentation as I was attending the Early Years program at VITTA. I heard great feedback about the presentation and was viewing the live blog whilst in the Early Years session :) Were there any particular games that caught your eye?

Brain training and maths training are particularly good.
