“What I call the breakfast cereal approach has, in
many cases, won out over the idea that educational content
always waters down entertainment value, and vice versa. A
popular breakfast cereal can have sugar and fiber, cartoon

games that Mikey and his education-minded mother like.”
—Ellen Strain, assistant professor in the School
of Literature, Communication and Culture, on applying
the pleasures of computer gaming to educational software.
