Technology for Education

I found some eGames on the web, go to: http://www.twitchspeed.com/site/news.html.

Although some of the technology used to develop the games was interesting and I did get a chuckle out of a couple of the games, it was easy to get ahead in some of the games without reading the questions. I started to question the educational value.

I did, however, find the game, Move-it, interesting. I got to play the Ethics version. The game had (1) well written instructions, (2) feedback for right and wrong answers, (3) a reference link available, (4) a link to concepts/facts. Try it out, I actually played a couple of rounds - believe it or not.
