Whether it's international health professionals or computer programmers who want to make the actual games, let me know. A rather minor point....

I see rather a lot of push back when talking to teachers about 'games', but the parse 'learning object' seems to resonate well:) david 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_object Beth --- _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
