Paper Abstract:
|
Integrating new technologies into the curriculum has always been difficult. Despite the recent technological advances in computer games, the rapid growth of the industry and the number of hours spent playing games, computer games have not been integrated into our education system. We examine different ways games can be used in teaching, describe the barriers and propose solutions. |
