"Comparing five different styluses is not an easy task. Each has a completely different packaging, shape and style, each is made for different devices (although most are “made for iPad”), and each excels at different tasks. But this is why we’re here today, to help you find out which one of these great styluses will be the best choice for you, your needs, and your devices."

"Aimed at teachers and those interested in using games with an educational intent, this handbook aims to provide some useful anchoring points for educators to make sense of the area and to develop practical approaches to the use of computer games as a medium for learning."

 

This is a very accessible overview of elements, theories, and examples of game-based learning for compulsory education. It also looks to be a decent source of references if you're looking for some literature pointers.
