Why might an educator use games for learning?

Why might an educator use lectures for learning?

Lectures are NOT effective for fostering higher level thinking?

During lectures students' thoughts involved
attempting to solve problems, or synthesize or
inter-relate information for 1% of the time.
78% of the lecture is spent in ‘passive thoughts about the subject’ and ‘irrelevant thoughts’.
![Page 10: Where is the learning in games](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052509/55c5451fbb61eb477b8b462c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
21 studies found lecturing to be less
effective than: discussion, reading
and individual work in class.
Lectures are not a very effective way of teaching in
higher education – especially if the aim is to
teach thinking, or to change attitudes or other higher aims beyond the simple transmission of
factual knowledge.”

Instruction with learning games yields higher gains in learning and retention than traditional
instruction.

It wasn’t the game, it was level of activity in the game.
In other words, the engagement of the learner in the game leads
to learning.

Instructional games should be embedded in instructional programs that include debriefing and feedback.
Instructional support to help learners understand how to use the game increases instructional effectiveness of the gaming experience.

With serious games, both learners playing individually and those playing in a group learn more than the comparison group, but learners who play serious games in a group learn more

While playing a game, learners will voluntarily do harder problems and work.

A math facts game deployed on a handled computer encouraged learners to complete greater number of
problems at an increased level of difficulty.
Learners playing the handheld game completed nearly 3 times the number of problems in 19 days
and voluntarily increased the level of difficulty.

Researchers have found that the human brain has a natural affinity for
narrative construction.
Yep, People tend to remember facts more accurately if they encounter
them in a story rather than in a list.
And they rate legal arguments as more convincing when built into narrative tales rather than on legal precedent.

Students in the experimental group who played the Tabula Digita video games over an 18 week period scored significantly higher on district math benchmark tests than students in the control group who did not play the video games (p<.001). In fact, the increase in scores for the test group was more than double the increase in score for the control group.
