I had the opportunity to interview Dr. Silviana Falcon, a thought leader, author and professor last summer. It has taken me a while to upload the full interview, but here you have it. Not only you will learn about her book Lectures and Play, but also some ideas you can put into practice. She is not only a top professional but a very enthusiastic and warm human being. I think you will enjoy what she has to say about how to improve higher education through play.

The interview
The book: Lectures and Play. A Practical and Fun Guide to Create Extraordinary Classroom Experiences.
Her book makes a case for higher education professors to incorporate educational games to their traditional lectures in order to enhance the learning environment and yield deeper learning. The book includes a collection of outstanding games, tips, tricks and stories that can be used to teach more than a single subject or principle.
