Last week we had a gaming session which involved playing a number of different consoles such as the wii, xbox, nintendo DS, playstation and xbox kinect. As I was feeling un well and had to go home, I played on my Wii sports and Wii fit games later on at home.
I feel that this type of game is very good for developing physical and gross motor skills. I think it is beneficial for children to be able to play a range of games. For example, games which help you to improve problem solving skills and improve thinking skills such the Nintendo DS can be very beneficial to children. But also I feel that it is also good for children to play games like the wii fit and wii sports which involve them getting up and moving around in order to playt he game. This gives them a good balance of everything and will make sure they can improve their skills all around.
Over all I think that gaming in Education is a positive thing and can only benefit children in the long run :)
