Interesting way to make a living. Stressful though I would think. Like anything. More you do it the better you get at it and the less stressful it is. Amazing someone makes more than a healthy living playing video games. Real SOT (Sign of the Times). M

Teaching Empathy Through Digital Game Play

Teaching Empathy Through Digital Game Play | Must Play | Scoop.it

“ Video games can offer a playful approach to learning a new concept, providing a jumping off point for diving deeply into a topic. Games can’t do all the teaching, but they are an engaging way to get kids thinking -- even about ethics.”


Via Gust MEES, Reucover
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

I love the idea of teaching through video games. One of my favorite books is Steven Johnson's Everything Bad Is Good For You.


Johnson's book is about how the video revolution has helped make us smarter and ready us for ths crazy digital time we live in. Johnson proposes a clear way to know the differnedce beteen life NOW and THEN. Try watching an old show like My Three Sons or I Dream of Jeannie. Can't be done. Too slow and goofy. 

This post makes me wonder how ecommerce websies could "teach empathy" via games too.
