Controversial Education Video Games

This video about the video game, DimensionM. Some parents believe that the game only fuels children's addictions to video games and violent behavior. DimensionM is a video game that has children solve math problems while fighting to reach new levels. The developers say it adheres to the standards set forth by the NCTM. This was a perfect video to come on the news now because the parents who are 'digital immigrants' do not understand that video games and computers are the way of the future. This is the way 'digital natives' and '21st century learners' will be learning. The future of education will see complete digitalization of school textbooks and instruction. 'Digital immigrants' need to realize that the way they learned is not the way their children and grandchildren will or should learn. They need to be stimulated in the classroom, because teachers are competing with technology such as iPods, Smartphones, Smartboards, and the internet.
