Doubtless most of you are already familiar with the concept, but for the sake of being thorough let me touch on it quickly. Edutainment is the process of educating through the use of popular forms of entertainment. Arguably parables and fairy tales with their moral of the story format are a form of edutainment that has existed for thousands of years. Probably the first example of using modern media methods for edutainment would be the WWII army training films featuring Private Snafu.
