Robin,
I have a hard time getting students to use NoodleTools, although the new
quick link to create a citation from a database is helping. I really like
the idea of teaching them to use NoodleTools through games. I don't have
any yet, but will think about this when I have some time over winter
break. If you get any good ideas, please pass them along.

Hi folks,
I have observed that our freshmen are critical of NoodleTools and by the
time they are juniors and seniors they love it. Not surprising right?
Upperclassmen and their teachers use and appreciate more of the NoodleTools
features.
Of course there are many ways this issue could be addressed. One of the
responses I am developing is a set of NoodleTools games that allow freshmen
and their teachers to truly play with all the NoodleTools features. These
games could include building teams and goofy citations and treasure hunts
to find things in NoodleTools. I haven't worked out the details yet. I am
wondering if anyone has done anything like this in their schools. I would
love any game ideas you have tried.
Thanks very much,
Robin
