In my opinion it is the best part of the book. Graziella Tonfoni seems to be such a person who has managed even to impress Marvin Minsky from MIT, who has written a brilliant foreword for her. Like for all these methodologies, two conditions have to be met for their successful application: Learners must join in with the game and give free play to their creativity, and the teacher must be a charismatic person able to fill his/her students with enthusiasm. Tonfoni's approach seems to belong to some kind of fringe methodology. Computer screen, are they perhaps cyberspace objects or even pure imagination on the part of the writing subject just to stimulate his own creativity? A teacher should know this before he/she starts to work with such objects.
