Gaming Lessons
Back in the 80s, personal computers were in their infancy stages, and the video games people played on them were very rudimentary. But thanks to improvements in technology and whole generations of people growing up with gaming systems ranging from Commodore 64 to Sega Genesis and the Xbox, gaming has evolved both in style and substance.
Today gaming is a multi-player, online opportunity to play against people worldwide on computers, mobile devices, and consoles. While it’s certainly become a multi-million dollar business, the true value of gaming, besides endless hours of fun, is that the skill develops problem-solving skills, increases hand-eye coordination, and improves memory.
