[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. Despite the general consensus that video games encourage antisocial behavior, obesity, sedentariness and - some argue - violent tendencies, there is an entirely opposite definition to this animated, interactive entertainment many people overlook: their value as effective learning tools. The extent to which children and adolescents alike connect with the fantasy world of video games is both grand and far-reaching; that this interactive relationship has spilled over into the academic environment as an unexpected - yet highly welcome - educational device speaks to the overwhelming benefit this particular type of technology has had upon reaching and teaching students, inasmuch as being engaged with the overall learning process is half the struggle of achievement.

Personal Learning Theory
[ send me this essay ]
7 pages in length. The need for personal learning theories may appear to some as an unnecessary approach to instilling the principles of knowledge, understanding and cognitive skills, however, this approach to effective learning is not arbitrary; rather, the need for more than one way to learn speaks to the many ways in which people respond to stimuli.
