This line again... Education only works insofar as it acculturates children to greater society (or novices to the society of some specific domain). The methods of education are social, present in the surrounding culture and mediated by teachers through social interactions. Consequently, for video games to be "the future of education", video games have to be the future of society as such. Video games are _in_ society, much like music, television and harry potter, but neither are "the future of education". Not even the printing press could upend the basic structure and process of education, only add literacy to the curriculum. Forgive me, but I just don't see "playing video games" make that list in any meaningful way.
