Weekly Reading #7


It surprised me that more of the games played are played by women instead of men.  Considering that most of the games played in my house are by the guys. On both sides of my family, it is the guys consistently that play more games.  The article states that 38% are played by women.

The only games available when I was young was Atari.  I played it some but never really spent too much time with it.

It is important that we encourage children to play games as this will only support the concept of using technology.  In hopes that teachers will jump onboard the idea that games support technology use and encourage creative technology ideas.

  1. I also think it is important to support video game play because like sports they support the development of teamwork! An important 21st century skill!
