Jordan Shapiro, author of a Mindshift series on games and education. That said, designers can take a few points of reference from the GLPC study. First, anecdotal feedback continues to be a powerful driver of how teachers choose games. Perhaps surprisingly only 15 percent of teachers noted the reviews the game received and only a quarter cited the cost of the games as factors that influenced their decisions to use a game in the classroom. Understanding what keeps a teacher from utilizing video and online games is one of the critical challenges facing game developers seeking to sell their games in school.
Google and Apple have both sought to address this issue of the time it takes and the difficulty one encounters trying to find a game that addresses the correct course requirements. One of the reasons that we may be seeing a more regular use of digital games in the classroom could be found in what teachers had to say about the benefits and impacts of using games.
In particular, teachers said the use of games can have a huge benefit for those students who have struggled in regular school situations and tests. This stat was almost mirrored in what qualities teachers most valued in games. Perhaps one of the more interesting things to note is when asked who benefits from the use of games one of the lowest scores from the teachers was the best students.
Only 15 percent said high-performing students most benefited from the games, but it should be kept in mind 30 percent said all students benefited equally. Include Synonyms Include Dead terms.
