Description

Jane McGonigal takes to our pulpit to challenge our assumptions about games as ways to "pass" or "waste" our time - and argues instead that we are never more productive than when we are immersed in a good game.

What, exactly, do we produce when we play a good game? Positive emotions - like optimism, curiosity and wonder; collective intelligence; and a stronger social fabric.In this sermon, Jane urges us to become more productive in what really matters in life - happiness, resilience, and meaning -- by spending more of our time playing bigger and better games.

Jane McGonigal is a game designer based in San Francisco, California. She is the director of game research and development at the Institute for the Future and author of 'Reality Is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World.'
