As we discussed in Wednesday’s lab, video games function as both an angel and a devil.
Video games can have “tremendous educative power” such as integrating thinking, social interaction, and reinforce, and technology into the learning experience. Besides, video games can help children develop their critical thinking skills, problem-solving skills, and cooperation abilities. Most importantly, some experts claimed that video games play an essential role in youth civic and political development.
On the other hand, video games can lead to social isolation, aggressive behavior, and even reinforce gender stereotypes. I also believe time spending too much on video games makes people spend less time on reading and studying, which makes people less informed and intelligent. I have a cousin in China. After he went into the most top university, he was getting addicted to the video games and was forced to drop school. All my family members feel so sad for my cousin, because he destroyed his brilliant future!
