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 chose. 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 along side their created
characters.

In this example I used PS4
Madden 17. 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.

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.
