'Educating Through Games with Professor Vanessa Haddad' by jack_boreham slogging gaming
AMA, we had the pleasure of interviewing Vanessa Haddad, liberal arts professor and video game advocate. She is known for using video games for education in the classroom and for her work at universities such as the University of Buffalo. We chat with her about how she uses games to educate and the educational system in general.
I'm a big believer in Piaget's and Vygotsky's theories of play and development, but play has benefits for people across the lifespan.
I don't think this has a place in education because this is all about extrinsic motivation, which so many students are already struggling with. "Why should I do this" is a common mentality. Right now, the extrinsic motivator for most students is the grade outcome - not what was actually learned or experienced, but just what the grade says. This is already troublesome because grades less and less are an actual reflection of mastery.
