\nIn an effort to curtail how much time young people spend playing video games, China has\u00a0banned students from playing them during the school week<\/a>\u00a0and limits them to just one hour per day on Fridays, weekends and holidays.<\/p>\n

The new rule took effect Sept. 1, 2021.<\/p>\n

From my standpoint as a video game designer and scholar who\u00a0specializes in game-based learning<\/a>, I don\u2019t see a need to limit video game play among students during the school week. Instead, I see a need to expand it \u2013 and to do so during the regular school day.<\/p>\n

Video games are one of the most popular mediums of our times. One estimate shows that by 2025,\u00a0the global gaming market will amount to US$268.8 billion annually<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 significantly higher than the $178 billion it is in 2021.<\/p>\n

The money spent on gaming does not just facilitate a virtual escape from the real world. Scholars such as James Paul Gee, a longtime literacy professor, have repeatedly shown that\u00a0video games can be used to facilitate learning<\/a>\u00a0in the K-12 classroom. Education writer\u00a0Greg Toppo<\/a>\u00a0reached the same conclusion in his\u00a0critically acclaimed<\/a>\u00a0book, \u201cThe Game Believes in You: How Digital Play Can Make Our Kids Smarter<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

A long history<\/h4>\n

The use of video games in the classroom is nothing new. Many people who went to school in the 1970s through the 1990s may recall the iconic video game\u00a0The Oregon Trail<\/a>, which made its debut in a classroom in 1971.<\/p>\n

In the game, players lead a group of settlers across the Midwest following in the\u00a0footsteps of Lewis and Clark<\/a>. The game came just before the video game industry\u00a0was established<\/a>\u00a0with the 1972 release of the video game\u00a0Pong<\/a>, an electronic version of table tennis.<\/p>\n

Even though educational video games have been used in classrooms for 50 years \u2013 and despite the fact that research shows\u00a0educational games can be effective<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 they are\u00a0not that common<\/a>\u00a0in classrooms today.<\/p>\n

Many educational games have been released since the days of The Oregon Trail. Some of the most popular are:\u00a0Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?,<\/a>Math Blaster!<\/a>,\u00a0Zoombinis<\/a>,\u00a0iCivics<\/a>,\u00a0DragonBox Algebra<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0History Maker VR<\/a>. Most games are for pre-K to elementary school students.<\/p>\n

Here are five reasons why I think video games should be used in every classroom.<\/p>\n

1. Video games can help students stay in STEM<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In 2020, the President\u2019s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology found that the nation needs to\u00a0create the STEM workforce of the future<\/a>. One of the reasons students drop or switch out of science, technology, engineering and math programs is because of the difficulty of introductory courses such as\u00a0calculus<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The University of Oklahoma has developed a\u00a0calculus game<\/a>\u00a0that can help students succeed in calculus. Research has shown student mastery of calculus\u00a0increases when using a purposeful designed learning game<\/a>, such as\u00a0Variant: Limits<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 another calculus game that was developed at Texas A&M University.<\/p>\n

2. They provide experiential learning<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Teaching students 21st-century skills, such as creative problem solving, is\u00a0important for the future workforce<\/a>, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. Games such as\u00a0DragonBox Algebra<\/a>, where students solve math problems in a fantasy environment, can help students master skills such as\u00a0critical thinking<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In games such as\u00a0Civilization<\/a>, players can be a civic leader and direct the prosperity of nations. In\u00a0ART\u00e9: Mecenas<\/a>, learners can become members of the\u00a0Medici family<\/a>\u00a0and become patrons of the arts and successful bankers. Students learn through doing and can\u00a0gain skills and knowledge<\/a>\u00a0through experiential learning that might not be gained in traditional classrooms.<\/p>\n

3. Players learn from failure<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Games are a natural way to allow students to fail in a safe way,\u00a0learn from failures<\/a>\u00a0and try again until they succeed.<\/p>\n

Some games, like\u00a0Burnout Paradise<\/a>\u00a0make failure fun. In the game, players can crash their cars \u2013 and the more spectacular the crash, the higher the points. This allows players to essentially learn from their mistakes, correct them and try again.<\/p>\n

The late video game theorist and author\u00a0Jesper Juul<\/a>\u00a0wrote in his book, \u201cThe Art of Failure<\/a>,\u201d that losing in video games is part of what makes games so engaging. Failing in a game makes the player feel inadequate, yet the player can immediately redeem themselves and improve their skills.<\/p>\n

4. Students stay engaged in content<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The average time a student spends learning in a classroom is only\u00a060% of the allocated class time<\/a>. Extending the school day to give students more time for learning has been shown to be\u00a0only marginally effective<\/a>. A more effective way to\u00a0maximize time for learning<\/a>\u00a0is through engaged time on task. When students are interested and care about a topic and it is relevant, they are curious and engaged. This provides a much better learning experience.<\/p>\n

In the classroom, teachers can engage students. But when it comes to homework, educators have to rely on other ways to motivate students. One way is through games. Educational games\u00a0can be designed to improve motivation and engagement<\/a>, providing students with more engaged time on task.<\/p>\n

5. Games make complex knowledge fun<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Educational theories state that students cannot be given knowledge; they construct knowledge in their own minds. Learners build on previously learned concepts to construct higher-level and more complex knowledge to\u00a0make it their own<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0periodic table of elements<\/a>\u00a0is challenging to learn and remember for many students. However, learning a complex\u00a0three-dimensional matrix<\/a>\u00a0with 27,624 values is easily accomplished by middle school students playing the popular video game\u00a0Pok\u00e9mon<\/a>. The essence of the game is figuring out how to combine the 17 different types of attack when battling other Pok\u00e9mon. Each Pok\u00e9mon has one or two types of attacks they can use. Players do not learn the different possible combinations by studying a large table with 27,624 entries, but by playing the game. Through playing the game, students gradually construct deeper knowledge of the game and\u00a0develop core skills<\/a>, such as literacy, how to compete with grace and sportsmanship, and abstract thinking.<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon was not developed as an educational game, but its design principles \u2013 and those of other popular video games \u2013 could easily be used to design video games for classrooms that enhance their educational experience.<\/p>\n
