Play performs an important role in children's intellectual, affective and social development and as such is regarded by some as the most “serious” activity undertaken by children. Play, at all ages, is an engaging way of fostering essential skills such as focus, creativity, collaboration and persistence. So why is play not exploited more widely in education beyond kindergarten? Can experiences that use play for learning and creativity inspire us to rethink the role of play in education?

James Paul Gee is the Mary Lou Fulton Presidential Professor of Literacy Studies and Regents’ Professor at Arizona State University. He is a member of the National Academy of Education.
He is the author of several books such as "Sociolinguistics and Literacies" and "An Introduction to Discourse Analysis". His most recent books have dealt with video games, language, and learning.
