" I find it really difficult to describe all the wonderful feelings I have about my internship experience with BrainPOP. I've learned so much in the time I was there, from working with awesome people to applying things I learned in my courses. The work environment/culture was also just so refreshingly positive and conducive to producing high quality work. I interned with them for the spring, and I am finishing up a continued summer internship with them right now. I'm currently scheduled to continue working for them part-time in the fall, so suffice to say it's definitely been a rewarding experience for me.  "

"Embodied cognition.  Cognitive apprenticeship.  Legitimate peripheral participation.  Take one class in the DMDL/LTXD program and you'll know that having a place to contextualize and practice your learning makes that knowledge even more engrained and encoded into your mind.  Having an internship not only de-theorizes the learning that you are taking part in, but also gives you a job title, real responsibilities, and job experience that you can include in resumes, portfolios, etc.  In my job search, my internship experience and real life practice is far, far, far, far more important than any class I've taken, paper I've written, or project that I've done."

" The internship experience in Classroom, inc. gave me an opportunity to know how to come up with the game idea and implement it. The people in the organization were very nice to work with. I never felt I was doing a job, but instead felt I was learning, contributing and enjoying."
