Has ITN never heard of Scotland? We have been doing a wide range of projects via Learning and Teaching Scotland's Consolarium initiative in Primary and Secondary schools using games such as Brain Training, Big Brain Academy, Phoenix Wright, Nintendogs and My Spanish Coach. Oh, and to answer the presenter's opening remarks, you wouldn't get detention for playing your DS in school up here. In fact I was in a schiool toiday tom see a project using Endless Ocean for the Wii and met a two representatives from a local solicitors company who had just donated 6 DSs to the school. If you're ever interested ITN then give LTS a call and we'll happily give you a story that's closer to home.
