How I'm doing my research paper

So far, I have investigated about my topic that is relate, how Video Games can teach us I have been reading a book What Video Games Have To Teach us by James Paul Gee. In addition, I am looking on some websites to find more information about it. Another think that I would like to do by doing my paper is to ask some kids about what they think if games can be as an educational, what they are learning from the games?, why they are being interesting on it? Etc For example, last week I was in my friend’s house and her nephew was playing a video game. My friend told him to use another TV so we can watch the news. He hardly moved out and not even looked up me. I thought he behaved like a Zombie. I became little intrigued and I went to my friend nephew’s room and asked him about the game. He explained to me how to play it. I did not like it because this game has too much violent. Immediately, I thought how this kind of games could be selling to these kids. My life moves on and really, I never think about the game again. After that, I have more interest to investigate more about it especially those create for kids and are currently in the elementary schools.

Since Dr. Smith has being explaining us many things about games I have being interesting on how games can teach us. In my opinion, at the time, games are very popular topic on colleges. Usually, I go to study on Queen College Library and I have noticed a lot of people working on the same topic. It has had very nice to me to know that many people have different opinion about games how people are involving on it. However, I am very interesting because when I thought on games the thing that came up to me was violence but right now I believe that also games can be as an educational tool.

Toy R'Us Trip

The most interesting thing for me about the trip was how I perceived the games. I have been in Toy R’Us before and I have never pay a lot of attention to the toys. I was working with Arisleidy and we were looking on the children section. Also, we was looking in the video games. We saw there a lot of games like Stay Cool!, Height School Music, Arcade 360 xbox, Ciber, Cyber and solve Mission Around the World!. For example, Stay cool! Game is relate with dance style Like that game because you can ply and at the same time do exercise. However, the game that catches my attention was Click start (My First Computer). This game show children how to use the different tools that the computer has like Keyboard, plug and play console, and a children mouse sized. This game transforms the TV into a PC, which allows kids to work and big screen and the whole family to have fun. Large colors buttons make it easy to kids to learn basic keystrokes.

What I have learned so far, in cluster class is how people have created a film before century and how directors are making a film now, also what kind of techniques the directors have used to create a film. Another amazing thing that I have learned in this cluster is how much the media influence the word, how much I understand about what I watch or read, and how I can analyze magazines before I by it. English 101/103, has help me to know that Iam not a good writer but I believe that since I started the class, I have learned some tool that has help me to improve my writing.

Gee Article

I read the article from James Paul Gee,and fought out that it is very good. I like on how Gee mention his own experinces plying the games specially the Pajama Sam. After, I knew how to play this game I interested of knowing more about it. However, what I like most in the Gee's article was when he relationed the concept of biology because he linkes it with the concept of learning. In other words, he says "decades of research, however, have shown, that students taught under such a regime, though they may be able to pass test, cannot actually apply their knowledge to solve problems or underestand the consectual lay of the land in the area they are learning.", this is a very clear statement on how actually apply our knowledge in our daily lives. According to this statement, and his point of view games give students/players the intertact key between knowing and doing. I have to be honest and say that I only like to play puzzle games, because it involves usefull skills including vocabulary, reasoning, speling, and word attack skills.

"Simulation Game" are games focusing on realism. It force players to underestand and remember complex principles and relaton. It is focusing on realism
