Video Game

I was not a video game player before, because I used to think it wastes my time. I am a mother of two daughters with a full time job. My two daughters are not obsessed to video game while some of my friends complain their sons are playing computer games too much. Actually, I don’t consider it is bad to play video game. It is just some type of learning anyway. I know a lot of smart kids are obsessed to computer game and they also have very good school grades. Some computer games are educational; they motivate the learning interests. For example, one of my friend’s son play black jack in computer; he develops a good skill in mental counting. Some car games will need intense observation to be a good player. My tennis grand slam needs a good coordination between two hands and eyes. At some point of view, this is some kind of learning beyond the knowledge.
However, whether I should apply video games into my teaching curriculum is still controversal.
