AnonyMouse_15046 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I've been writing an essay and just gone to sort out the Harvard references (nightmare starts). I have one quote which is; playing games “can encourage successful learning and increase self esteem” (Briggs and Davis, pg 99). I can't remember where I got this from. I've checked all my books and downloaded documents, looked on Amazon and Google and poured through my tutorial notes - nothing. Does anyone recognise the names? Or, failing that, does anyone have another quote I can use which says the same thing? I'm getting very pushed for time and beginning to panic a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) Dorothy Briggs wrote Your Child's Life: a Guide to his self-esteem (Doubleday 1970) Does that ring any bells? If you Google her name it comes up with 7 other titles - perhaps 1 will "jump out" at you. Good Luck! Nona Edited January 5, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_5458 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) I went onto google scholar then google books, put in Briggs and Davis and this was the first optin. It is maths you're doing isn't it? there also a 2008 version at anglia library but i can't look inside because it isn't an e-book.

AnonyMouse_15046 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) That's the one, sam2368! I can't find it because I had to give it back to the library. It all makes sense now. I don't know why I couldn't find it on Google. Perhaps I typed it in wrong Thank you all so much. I just LOVE this forum! I can finish it off now Edited January 5, 2010 by Upsy Daisy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_8466 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I don't know why I couldn't find it on Google. Perhaps I typed it in wrong Google doesn't always have a preview copy of the book! No operator error there, I should say! Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
