Poster will report Phase I of a three-phase mixed methods research project currently underway. My research explores teens' beliefs and motivations that keep them playing online games at a rate that some describe as "addiction."

This belief may indicate a sea change in how teens feel about educational institutions and their willingness to learn from them.
