给那些笃信“电子游戏是教育的未来”的人，我想推荐两本书：Kentaro Toyama 的《Geek Heresy》和 Todd Oppenheimer 的《The Flickering Mind》。前者敲响了警钟，作者曾任微软亚洲研究院（MSR Asia）副院长。后者则充满了历史案例……
For those who fervently believe that "Video Games Are The Future of Education", I would like to recommend two books: "Geek Heresy" by Kentaro Toyama, and "The Flickering Mind" by Todd Oppenheimer.

……在减贫中可以扮演关键角色（作为工具）。显然，贫困是一个复杂的问题，而技术只是解决方案中的工具之一。正如 Kentaro Toyama 在其力作《Geek Heresy: Rescuing Social Change from the Cult of Technology》[1] 中写道，技术只是人类意图的放大器。这也是我们创办 engageSPARK（一家非营利社会企业）的原因，也就是所谓的“写给非技术人员的 Twilio”……
…key role (as a tool) to play in reducing poverty. Obviously poverty is a complex problem and technology is jut one tool to be used as part of solutions. As Kentaro Toyama wrote in his excellent book, "Geek Heresy: Rescuing Social Change from the Cult of Technology" [1], technology is an amplifier of intent.

……学习，这也是我禁用它们的部分原因：https://jakeseliger.com/2008/12/28/laptops-students-distract... 。我从 Toyama 的书《Geek Heresy》里看到了充分的证据，证明电脑起到的完全是反作用：https://jakeseliger.com/2015/11/17/geek-heresy-rescuing-soci... 。
…learning and that's part of the reason I ban them: https://jakeseliger.com/2008/12/28/laptops-students-distract... . I have seen good evidence that computers do the opposite, in the form of Toyama's book Geek Heresy: https://jakeseliger.com/2015/11/17/geek-heresy-rescuing-soci... .
感谢你把这些观点阐述得这么透彻。虽然我可能有点班门弄斧了，但你真该去读读 Kentaro Toyama 的《Geek Heresy》。
