Gaming and Learning in the
Classroom
Alli Frindt
Purpose of Gaming
• “To examine the current movement
toward using games and game
design to enhance teaching and
learning.”
Relevant to Education?

–

Problem-based learning
Project-based learning
Problem solving techniques
Just-in-time resources and tools
Also gives students the chance to move into the material
and get a great sense of being in a virtual or somewhat
realistic situation
– Learning about setting, plot, backgronud information,
characters
Positives of Gaming
• Incorporating gaming into daily activities and
lessons gives the students a chance to engage
and use a form of experiential learning
• Way to involve technology into the daily
lessons and staying up to date with the latest
systems
• Enhances everyday learning and makes
learning fun for the students
Positives cont.
• Interactive Learning Environment
• Introducing students to the different
perspectives of the many parts of a gaming
system.
Negatives or Downfalls of Gaming
• Technical glitches
• System problems
• Levels not being able to be differentiated
among the classes or students with learning
disabilities
Play into the classroom
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Peer mentoring (good)
Role reversal (good)
Insight about students (good)
Mirthful experience (good)
Conflict(bad)
Resistance to “play”(bad)
Game dynamics in classroom (bad)
Too much insight to understand (bad)
Lasting Benefits
• Making learning fun again and not so stressful
for students!
• Creating a scenario for students to explore
• Show a form of pretend or misbelieve
(bringing back the inner child like act)
Multi-user Virtual Environments
(MUVEs)

• There are very many resources to use with all
levels of classrooms and grades.
– Murder on Grimm Isle
– EcoMUVE (science related)
– Active worlds Educational Universe
– Second Life
– Simulation Environments
Conclusion
• I think that incorporating more gaming
systems and new technology will be very
beneficial and make learning fun!
• This is the best way to teach students and give
them independence as well
• A fun way to learn and explore but at the
same time engaging in the lessons needing to
be learned or covered
