advantages and disadvantages of video games
Video games can provide cognitive benefits like improved problem-solving skills, hand-eye coordination, and multitasking abilities. However, excessive video game play may lead to negative social consequences such as isolation and increased aggression for some individuals. While video games offer mental stimulation when enjoyed in moderation, parents must guide children on setting appropriate limits and choosing content wisely to maximize benefits and minimize potential downsides.
The advantages and disadvantages of video games.
Video games have both advantages and disadvantages for kids:
- They provide interactive entertainment that allows kids to think and use their imagination, while promoting hand-eye coordination. However, too much unregulated video game play can negatively impact health and behavior.
- Violent video games can teach aggressive behavior, so parents should guide kids towards non-violent games. Excessive video game use can also lead to issues like lack of sleep, seizures, and obesity from poor diet and inactivity.
- Prolonged video game play may decrease imagination over time, while moderation can still provide benefits like shared social experiences with friends and family. Overall, regular parental involvement is important to maximize benefits and minimize harm
Digital games and health
What are the benefits and risks of playing computer, console and mobile games? What is "computer game addiction"? What every gamer needs to know about healthy habits? What can serious/competitive gamers do outside of the game to enhance their performance in it? What should health-care and education professionals teach to families about digital games and health?

New media technology examples
New media technologies like Safari, Pixton, Blogger, Wordle, YouTube, SlideShare, Windows Live Hotmail, iPhone, Facebook, Twitter, QuickTime, iTunes, iMovie, Photoshop, iPod, CDs, camera, Apple Mac, and PowerPoint were used to research, plan, create, and promote a student's media production project. These technologies allowed the student to find source material, develop ideas, produce video and images, add special effects, share work with others for feedback, and document the entire process online. While helpful overall, some programs like iMovie and the Apple Mac were slow.
The Greatest Showman
Hugh Jackman stars as P.T. Barnum, a talented showman who rises from nothing to create the famous Barnum & Bailey circus in the late 1800s. The film follows Barnum as he deals various jobs before finding success in show business, indulging his limitless imagination to mesmerize audiences with exotic performers and daring acts. The movie features nine original songs, including the popular "Come Alive," which encourages the audience to light themselves from within and reach their full potential despite feeling like outsiders. Some key lessons from the film include following your dreams, never giving up, embracing what makes you different, and overcoming self-doubt through hard work and determination.

week 7 Challenges in virtual world.pptx
This document discusses current challenges in media literacy education. It covers topics such as how learning is changing due to increased mediation; the history of media education concerns around commercialization of children's media and impacts on learning; evolving conceptions of literacy to include multimodal meanings; key concepts for analyzing media like production, texts, reception; characteristics of new media environments; and changes to young people's media experiences and culture. It concludes with seven challenges facing media education around issues like participation versus protection, linking literacies, connecting to human rights, and realizing democratic goals.
The Effect of Video Games on Early Cognitive Development
The document discusses research on the effects of video games on children's cognitive development. Studies found that video games can stimulate children's brains similarly to traditional play and may enhance spatial reasoning, visual tracking, and other skills in gamers compared to non-gamers. While gaming releases dopamine that can aid learning, excessive gaming of over half their free time was linked to lower prosocial behavior and satisfaction. The document concludes that video games may provide unique cognitive benefits for children if played in moderation.

This document provides background information on the history and development of comics. It discusses how comics originated from 19th century story papers in Britain that contained illustrated text stories. The first comic strip magazine featuring recurring characters emerged in 1884. In 1890, two comic magazines debuted that notoriously reprinted material from newspapers and magazines without permission. The success of these magazines allowed their owner to launch two major newspapers. Mainstream comics are primarily produced by DC Comics and Marvel, which are often subjects of debate among fans. The key roles involved in creating comics include illustrators, cinematographers, writers, and editors.
Gamification: How Effective Is It?
We presented this deck at the ESOMAR Congress 2011 conference in Amsterdam where it was nominated for "Best Methodological Paper".
The meat of this deck is a collection of case studies showing the efficacy of gamification in various BUSINESS contexts. It took us ages to contact and collate these various examples, so hopefully having them all in one place will save you time.

Media Violence
Media violence refers to the depiction or dissemination of violent or explicit material through various media sources that is considered harmful to viewers. Children in particular spend more time exposed to media than in school, witnessing thousands of acts of violence by age 18. Research shows that viewing media violence is correlated with increased aggressive behavior in youth and may lead to real-world violence. While video games, films, television, and music often contain graphic depictions of violence, determining appropriate restrictions to curb harmful effects while protecting free expression is an ongoing debate.

Read each scenario:
Scenario 1: While children are working on an art project in the classroom, the teacher overhears Amanda say, "Boys can’t use the pink paper!" Not wanting to escalate the situation, the teacher ignores the comment. A few minutes later, the teacher sees Amanda grab a piece of pink paper out of Miguel’s hands. Miguel begins to cry. The teacher intervenes by asking Amanda to apologize to Miguel for hurting his feelings.
Scenario 2: When dropping off his daughter at the day care center, a father approaches the coordinator with a complaint. "My daughter tells me that she is getting picked on by some of the other children because of the way she speaks. They call her a baby. Now, she doesn’t want to come here in the morning." He is clearly upset. The coordinator responds by stating, "I have not seen or heard any of this happen to your child. You know, we spend a great deal of time talking to the children about how to respect each others’ differences. We have a very accepting environment here. There is really no need for you to worry. I’m sure it will all work itself out."
Use the follow questions to address each scenario:
· How effectively did the early childhood professional respond to the given situation? Where do the responses fall short? Identify references and examples from the reading to support your ideas.
· What might the early childhood professional have said or done to improve the quality of the interactions and better promote an anti-bias learning environment?
The, rewrite the above scenarios in such a way that the early childhood professional facilitates positive interactions with children and families that exemplify ways to build respectful, supportive anti-bias learning communities. Include an explanation of any follow-up actions, activities and/or discussions that might also be helpful for each situation.
