Designing for Learning in an Open World
The Internet and associated technologies have been around for almost twenty years. Networked access and computer ownership are now the norm. There is a plethora of technologies that can be used to support learning, offering different ways in which learners can communicate with each other and their tutors, and providing them with access to interactive, multimedia content. However, these generic skills don’t necessarily translate seamlessly to an academic learning context. Appropriation of these technologies for academic purposes requires specific skills, which means that the way in which we design and support learning opportunities needs to provide appropriate support to harness the potential of technologies. More than ever before learners need supportive ‘learning pathways’ to enable them to blend formal educational offerings, with free resources and services. This requires a rethinking of the design process, to enable teachers to take account of a blended learning context.

Role-Playing Game Studies
This handbook collects, for the first time, the state of research on role-playing games (RPGs) across disciplines, cultures, and media in a single, accessible volume. Collaboratively authored by more than 50 key scholars, it traces the history of RPGs, from wargaming precursors to tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons to the rise of live action role-play and contemporary computer RPG and massively multiplayer online RPG franchises, like Fallout and World of Warcraft. Individual chapters survey the perspectives, concepts, and findings on RPGs from key disciplines, like performance studies, sociology, psychology, education, economics, game design, literary studies, and more. Other chapters integrate insights from RPG studies around broadly significant topics, like transmedia worldbuilding, immersion, transgressive play, or player–character relations. Each chapter includes definitions of key terms and recommended readings to help fans, students, and scholars new to RPG studies find their way into this new interdisciplinary field.

Alterkine: The Ones We Were
The Ones We Were is intended for 3-6 characters of levels 3-5.Welcome to a world where, yes, it can get worse...and usually does. Anything is possible, but the possibilities often wind up have scales, fangs, claws, and a particular penchant for snacking on human flesh. Here, you'll find the deranged, the deviant, and the deadly. And that's not even talking about the monsters yet. While perhaps a darker world, Alterkine still provides many opportunities for daring fights and feats that set the commoner apart from the true hero--or simply the unlucky dead from the skin-of-their-teeth survivors. Or you might just be in it for the cash, or because you harbor a nasty lust for violence and death that blurs the line between monster and man. Whatever the case, you knew the risks when you chose this life, and now it's just a question of whether you'll live long enough to collect on your next paycheck.
