Video Games – Are They Really Just A Waste Of Time Or Can They Be Educational?
Video games, the bane of every parent’s existence; the begging for the latest game or game console, the excuses not to do chores, the lack of fresh air and sunlight! It’s enough to drive most parents over the edge; but what if you found out that all those hours spent in front of the TV, joystick in hand, was actually educational? Prove it you say? OK let’s look at what gaming actually improves.
Strategic Thinking – Most games require the player to think two or three moves ahead of their current situation, the ‘what comes next’ way of thinking. With constant exposure this becomes second nature in life as well.
Problem Solving – Studies have shown that video games improve problem-solving skills. Most (if not all) games are centered on a problem or quest which the player must then solve by overcoming all obstacles.
Hand/Eye Coordination – Using a game controller is just as difficult as learning to touch type or play the piano and just as important. Try it sometime; it’s not easy getting the avatar to do what you want.
Decision Making Skills – Being able to make quick decisions in a short amount of time has so many real world applications. Do you turn left or right, fight the dragon or the Cyclops, stop now or later? Granted, there are not dragons or Cyclops in real life but you get the picture.
Imagination – The old argument is that there is no need to use imagination in television, videos, or gaming. Untrue! Where else can you imagine yourself to be a strong, rugged barbarian or a wizard with incredible powers? Imagination needs a place to start and what better place than the awesome imagery and unique scenarios available in a video game? Of course you could always stare at a stack of blocks and see what comes to mind.
Exploration – Video role-playing games encourage the player to stray off the beaten path, take a chance and open the door, not knowing what may be lurking behind it and interact with other characters. It is not just a suggestion but a requirement that players gather up their courage and explore the unknown.
Memorization – The worlds depicted in video games can be vast and accessing maps and other help can disrupt not only the game but a player’s concentration as well. To avoid this gamers will automatically memorize new terrain and remember which tasks must be completed to reach a certain goal.
Consequences – All games, whether computer or video, operate on a ‘action/reaction’ principle. Do action A and reaction B will happen. This is a great opportunity for both gamers and programmers to learn about the consequences of their actions.
Patience, Dedication, Endurance – Very few games can be finished in a day and if you can finish them that soon most people feel cheated. In fact, some of the most popular games take weeks or even months to finish.
Still not convinced? Try sitting down with your child’s video game and make it through level 1 without any help. Once you are successful, take another look at our list and decide for yourself if we are right.
