Hey Mckma.  Just wanted to let you know that I'm going to run with that idea.  English teacher is being a bit of a bear about it though.  So the major trial in this actually becoming a paper will be whether i can find 5 hardcopy sources on the subject.  Other than that though the idea is an amazing one.  And yeah I'd love to chat a bit about it.  Even if its just stealing your ideas    Oh, and sorry for this taking so long.  I just moved out and I don't have net at my place yet.

As far as what kind of research is required its pretty much just anything we can find that we can verify is credible.  So no blogs or wikis, but anything else is open.  Topics are open to just about anything.  One kid is doing the development of Skyrim if that tells you anything.  Its limited to 5 pages at least 10 sources.  He wants concise writing not long writing.  So it has to be pretty fact packed. If you want to keep thinking about it be my guest.  God knows I can use the help from the creative front.

Thanks to both of you for the ideas. Though I was looking for something a little bit more tabletop gaming oriented I liked the idea of how it can be used in the classroom. Remember reading something like that on popgun chaos too. As far as soft or hard science I'm leaning more soft at the moment.

I'm a senior in highschool and its coming up on that magical time of year where research papers are getting started. My teacher said to do something that I am passionate about so here I am. Anyone got any ideas on a topic related to gaming?

Oh, and hi! I'm new here, but have been listening to the show since episode 35.
