The question of this video is a very important question for Educational Games,
Can Video Games make us Smarter?
Here is the video, check it out and we can try to analyze it.
Important Notes:
- Increase in Cognitive function (Memory, Strategic Planning, Fine Motor Skills)
- Increased Attention Skills
- Object Tracking
- Future Jobs
- Skills are only good if you use them
My Thoughts:
- These skills are key components to Problem solving, a trait everyone needs on an everyday basis.
- This skill can help people focus and concentrate better, another trait that will help everyone do a better job at anything.
- This could be related to multitasking
- Anyone that is not fully literate in technology will be in great disadvantage in the future, having kids grow with educational games will prepare them for the future.
- It is important for the games to also encourage activities outside of the house, to help kids understand how to use what they learn.
Some time ago I did a game very similar to the one of the colors on the video, check it out and measure how good you can get.
