Neverwinter Nights Rebuilt as a Learning Tool

BBC News is reporting that computer science teachers at West Nottinghamshire College are using a modified version of BioWare's Neverwinter Nights as an educational tool.
Computer science teachers at West Nottinghamshire College were struggling to get their teenage students into literacy and numeracy classes.

So they took apart Atari's popular computer game Neverwinter Nights and rebuilt it with educational challenges the player must meet to progress.

Success rates in key skills at the Mansfield college has trebled to 94%.

Pretty cool.
