These games allow for fun and exciting learning. At a young age a lot of students are anixous to learn about the computer. In a fun and learning way, you can have your studnet playing online and learning at the same time. This also gives the student a different teacher. You are learning from an online instructor instead of the same person everyday. I believe students like a little change in their life. I can remember going to school and having something different to look forward to everyday. Now, with technology we can allow for different and fun activities!
Yeah. I agree with you. Students are very excited to be on computers and this way they will be doing just that along with learning other things as well.
ReplyDeleteI know, its crazy how things change in a short amount of time!
ReplyDeleteIn this day and age I believe that students need to learn how to use computers and letting a child play a game in order to learn seems like a good idea to me. I remember learning best through different types of games because you are right, its not the same thing everyday.
ReplyDeleteHi, McKnown, can you give some example educational games please?
ReplyDeletethe word worm...it's a spelling game. There are also math games, that help you learn the traditional games. One game is called math baseball. There are multiple games available online... grammar gorillas.
ReplyDeletecheck out my recently added added links for more games!! :)
ReplyDeleteI do agree with the idea of having different instructors to encourage variety, but I think some students do not know how to deal with online learnig. They need the strict structure of a traditional classroom.
