1.2 Why use computer games

In this video Ollie goes over a range of reasons why we would use computer games at school. Ollie starts with a quote from Derek Robertson

Derek Robertson  is saying that good teachers will pick the right tools for their students to be able to cater for their own individual needs.

Ollie believes that  a good learning environment is made up of two things: 1. Engaging ways and 2. Good pedagogy

He believes that Challenge, Progression ​and Reward. are very important too.

At the end he invites us to think about a computer game we have played think about the reasons we enjoyed this game.
