Dr. Vanessa (Domine) Greenwood officially kicked off the C+MRC podcast on 90.3 WMSC FM. In this inaugural episode, she engages Dr. Hugh Curnutt in a reflective discussion about video games as both a content and medium worthy of study in higher education. Listen as Dr. Curnutt reveals the function of story and narrative in gaming, the value of transgressing rules, and achieving a pedagogical balance between video game playing and academic rigor.
