I have been working on a paper for the Education Market. The paper talks about using video games
as a teaching tool for children with learning disabilities. The age demographic would be 8 to 18.
Games could be up to the teacher or student to choose. Games might include soccer, football,
basketball, etc.
Students could learn about various historical or fictional characters and create them as players
for their team. It would allow the student to study history, philosophy, religion, sports, popular
culture, etc. and then create the characters to be a part of their team. The students would even
be able to play alongside their created characters.
On some of the teams historical figures like Martin Luther King, and Abraham Lincoln will play
on the same team with authors like Ernest Hemingway and William Shakespeare, or Elvis Presley
and Tupac Shakur.
The process is meant to be a simple and fun way for kids to learn subjects such as world
history, literature, poetry, art, music, science and vocabulary. Maybe PS4/XBOX machines
might be donated or discounted to schools for these classes. More on the paper as it is fleshed
out. Enjoy the simulations.
Also for sentimental reasons, some fallen friends and family are on this team. Semper Fi.
May you rest in peace.
