Video games can aid in the learning process by improving skills like logic, memory, visualization, and problem solving. When designed to address a specific problem or teach a skill, games have shown considerable success. Studies have found that surgeons who played the Nintendo Wii before a virtual surgery scored higher than those who did not. Military researchers are also exploring how video games can help teach soldiers skills in a way that supplements traditional training methods. However, students still need guidance when using games and simulations for learning.

PLU: Student Preferences for Tech in the Classroom
Students bring their own technology to campus, favoring mobile devices like laptops, smartphones, and tablets. They expect constant access to course materials, grades, and administrative functions through these devices. Most students feel that technology helps their academic success by providing resources, tracking progress, and facilitating communication. While social media is important personally, most students prefer to keep academic and social lives separate. Students learn most in blended environments that make strategic use of technology to actively engage them. Institutions should respond by supporting faculty development and access to resources that enable engaging, technology-enhanced teaching and learning.
ICT and Mobile Learning
Mobile technology and devices have revolutionized education by providing new opportunities for learning. Students can use their mobile devices to access educational resources, conduct research, record multimedia content related to their coursework, and collaborate with classmates through apps. Many schools now allow students to bring their own devices (BYOD) which increases student engagement and access to online learning tools. It is important that schools provide secure infrastructure, e-safety policies and teacher training when implementing BYOD programs. Mobile devices have the potential to enhance learning by enabling creative projects, presentations, and communication in languages being studied.

The negative and positive impacts of video games
This document provides a literature review on the impacts of video games on student development. It discusses how video games can positively impact student motivation, collaboration, and brain-based learning. When appropriately designed and integrated into the classroom, video games have been shown to increase student engagement, foster collaboration between students, and promote neuroplasticity which can lead to improved academic achievement. However, excessive video game play that replaces other activities can negatively impact students' behavior through increased social isolation or aggressiveness. The document concludes that video games can have a positive impact on students when designed properly, integrated into the curriculum, and with sufficient time and monitoring.

EXAMPLE OF PROPOSAL : THE STUDY ON LEARNING MATHEMATICS THROUGH ART BY USING EDUCATION GAMES AMONG STUDENTS AT SECONDARY SCHOOLThe use of video games in special education
This document discusses using computer games in special education. It notes that traditional education focuses more on memorization than creativity and collaboration. Video games can increase motivation, attention and help apply concepts to real life. Educational video games should prioritize designing experiences over content. They can engage students more than classrooms and help students think critically. However, games must be designed correctly for special education, considering each student's cognitive abilities and disabilities. Guidelines for design include identifying student profiles, structuring objectives to fit them, offering feedback, and gradually increasing difficulty levels. Video games show potential to teach essential life skills to those with disabilities in novel ways compared to traditional methods.
Exploring application attitudes and integration of video games
This study explored the use of the educational video game MinecraftEdu in middle school classrooms. It analyzed student outcomes, attitudes of teachers, students and parents, and interactions on the virtual learning environment Edmodo. While student academic outcomes did not significantly improve and some parents had negative views, most students found MinecraftEdu fun, engaging, and a good way to explore and learn about history in an immersive virtual environment. The study used a quasi-experimental design to compare students who used MinecraftEdu to a control group, surveys to assess attitudes, and message analysis to study online interactions. Overall, the results suggest video games may enhance motivation and creativity even if they do not directly improve test scores.
Does playing video or computer games have beneficial effects.docx
Does playing video or computer games
have beneficial effects on brain and
behaviour? If so, does the evidence point to
general improvements in cognitive function?
Daphne Bavelier & C. Shawn Green.
Although the popular media has a strong ten-
dency to produce breathless headlines about
the effects (or lack of effects) of video games, it
is worth noting that the term ‘video games’
is far from a single construct and thus, has
almost no scientific predictive power. One
can no more say what the effects of video
games are, than one can say what the effects
of food are. There are millions of individual
games, hundreds of distinct genres and sub-
genres, and they can be played on computers,
consoles, hand-held devices and cell phones.
Simply put, if one wants to know what the
effects of video games are, the devil is in
the details.
Studies that have examined perception
and spatial cognition (from our lab and many
others) have focused on one specific genre of
games — the so-called ‘action’ video games.
Indeed, playing this type of game results in a
wide range of behavioural benefits, includ-
ing enhancements in low-level vision, visual
attention, speed of processing and statistical
inference, among others. Furthermore, prop-
erly controlled training studies have repeatedly
demonstrated a causal link between video
game playing and enhanced abilities. Hence,
it is not just that people who naturally choose
to play games have better perceptual skills.
The ability to improve one’s abilities through
practice has obvious practical ramifications,
from rehabilitation of visual skills in individu-
als with amblyopia (also known as a ‘lazy eye’)
to the training of surgeons.
Doug Hyun Han & Perry F. Renshaw.
The extent to which playing video and on-
line games affects the brain and behaviour is
uncertain. It is likely that the specific beneficial
or harmful effects are determined by the char-
acteristics of both the individual and of the
game. Several studies have reported that video
and on-line game play may improve visuo-
spatial capacity, visual acuity, task switch-
ing, decision making and object tracking in
healthy individuals. However, methodological
limitations to these studies have also been
noted. For example, cross-sectional compari-
sons of gamers and non-gamers may reflect
baseline differences in cognitive abilities rather
than the effects of game playing. Moreover,
video game training studies that involve the
recruitment of non-gamers and that provide
game experience have not generally shown
that gaming enhances performance on higher
level reasoning and problem solving tasks.
Michael M. Merzenich. The potential
benefits that can be achieved through
video-game play are, of course, a function
of the specific task requirements, and of the
cognitive and social demands and values
represented by the game(s) in play. Games
that require progressively more accurate and
more challenging judgments ...
Learning Through Video Games
Video games is a fast growing industry all over the world. Amount of time and money spent on the games industry cannot stay without our attention. Video games have interest and attention of school aged youth. Which make us think of the possibility of using video games in learning process, particularly in educational institutions.I discuss influence of video games and concentrate on learning through video games and its main learning principles. My essay is mainly based on J.P. Gee works.
CHADD 2014 Should Children with ADHD Play Minecraft?
This document discusses potential benefits and concerns regarding children with ADHD playing Minecraft. It summarizes research showing that video games can positively impact cognition, motivation, social behavior, and emotion regulation for children. Specifically, games may improve spatial skills, problem-solving, persistence, and social/emotional regulation. However, children with ADHD or autism are more at risk for problematic game use. Inattention is linked to problematic use, and role-playing games are associated with issues for those with autism. The document examines whether parents and educators have choice regarding technology and considers developmental trends in media use.
Apprendre par le jeu
Games can be used for learning in several ways:
1) People can learn from playing games through trial and error feedback loops. Games allow exploration without real-world consequences.
2) Games have been used successfully to teach a variety of subjects in classrooms from elementary school through university levels. They increase student motivation and information retention.
3) Scientific discovery games engage many participants in solving research problems through game mechanics. Players of the protein folding game Foldit have contributed to scientific papers by developing strategies to solve protein structures better than computer algorithms.
IRJET- Application of Information Technology and Serious Games in Education
1) The document discusses the application of information technology and serious games in medical education. It presents results of a study on Bulgarian medical students' use and opinions on new technologies in their education.
2) The study found that most students use internet-based medical information and data analysis software in their studies, but fewer use serious medical games currently.
3) Students believe that using serious educational games could help develop new skills like reacting quickly in unfamiliar situations, beyond just enhancing their medical education.
Atap 3 (1)
This document discusses how digital games like Minecraft and Angry Birds can help develop executive functioning skills in children with ADHD and autism. It explains that games provide opportunities to practice skills like flexibility, planning, problem-solving and self-control in an engaging way. The document provides recommendations on game use, including making play social and balanced with other activities, and providing structure and guidance from parents/teachers.
Using Digital Gaming within the classroom
The document discusses the use of digital games in education. It presents summaries of three articles that argue digital games can be effective learning tools if implemented properly in the classroom. The articles describe how games can improve problem-solving, collaboration, and engagement. Educational games work best when they adapt to students and are integrated into lessons with progress tracking. Overall, the document advocates for using technology and digital games in classrooms to motivate and teach today's students.
Effect of Computer-Based Video Games on Children: An Experimental Study
This study investigated whether playing computer-based video games or receiving traditional computer-assisted instruction (CAI) resulted in better learning outcomes for 108 third-grade students. The students were randomly assigned to either play the video game Fire Captain, which taught firefighting skills and knowledge using game elements, or receive traditional text-based CAI on the same topic. Both groups then took a post-test assessing their learning. Results of a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) showed that students who played the video game scored significantly higher on the post-test overall as well as on questions testing fact recall and problem-solving compared to students who received traditional CAI. The study thus provides evidence that computer-based video games can facilitate learning
Game based learning and intrinsic motivation
An unpublished paper for MSIDT graduate program at Cal State Fullerton University about learning through games
Using Games in the Classroom
1. Playing games is an important part of child development as it helps children learn social and cognitive skills like symbolization and abstract thinking. As children grow, the types of games and rules change with their cognitive abilities.
2. There is evidence that computer games can be effective instructional tools by making learning engaging and relevant to students' interests while developing different learning styles. Games help motivate students through challenge and adjustment of difficulty.
3. For games to be appropriate for classroom use, teachers must ensure the content is connected to curriculum objectives and choose games that incorporate lessons rather than being used purely for entertainment. Games can teach skills like problem solving, critical thinking and discovery to enhance learning.

- Digital games show promise for positively changing health behaviors and outcomes, but establishing evidence of their effectiveness faces major challenges of replicability and generalizability.
- Key ingredients for sustainable success include multidisciplinary research to establish what works for different conditions and users, as well as iterative development working with stakeholders and users.
- Gamification needs to go beyond just points and badges to drive long-term changes; social accountability and making health fun through games and narratives can help engage users.Similar to Emerging trends in education (20)
