Chalk Talk: Educational Games
A strange belief has developed over the past few decades. It is a belief in the idea that playing video games is a mindless act, but that playing board games is interactive, encourages creativity, and develops problem-solving skills. Obviously, this is true about board games, but what many people fail to see is that it can be true about video games, too. Video games are not a passive medium that require players to merely stare at screens. That are an active medium that, much like board games, teach players important skills. Teachers are beginning to recognize this. Some of them are beginning to use games to teach students standards-based knowledge and to assess students understanding of that knowledge. The only reason more teachers aren’t using video games for these purposes is that currently there are not enough games. That means that schools and software companies should get to work developing the next generation of educational games.
