My team and i have co-authored a book with John Comings, titled a guidebook on developing digital games for early grade literacy for developing countries.

The guidebook was commissioned by Digital Learning for Development (DL4D) and All Children Reading: a Grand Challenge for Development (ACR-GCD) and will be launched at this year's symposium of the Mobiles for Education (mEducation) Alliance in Washington DC on the 6th of October.

DL4D is part of the Information Networks in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa (INASSA) program funded jointly by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) of Canada and the Department for International Development (DFID) of the United Kingdom, and administered by the Foundation for Information Technology Education and Development (FIT-ED) of the Philippines.

ACR GCD was launched by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), World Vision, and the Australian government, as an ongoing series of projects which leverage science and technology to create scalable solutions to improve literacy skills of early grade learners in developing countries.
