Game-based learning

I’d love to do something with game-based learning in some of my courses, but I’m not sure where to start. However, Derek Wenmoth’s posted a few things over the past 6 months or so that might give me some insights.

See Derek’s Blog » Game-based learning handbook (which points to TheGameiT handbook) and Derek’s Blog » Using Minecraft in education.

I’ve got a copy of the board game Terra that I’m thinking of using in ethics class next year, as well as the old President for a Day PC game, but would like some more ideas.
