Gaming's Help in Education
Education through technology has changed in a vast majority of ways. Gaming is one of these new discoveries in technology and it can help with kids with disabilities and kids who become bored to easily through older ways of teachings. Gaming uses entertainment as a way to get through to kids and make learning “fun”. As well as with disabled children, using gaming can help because some may not receive as much information as others and school becomes hard for them, but with gaming at the disposal, teachers use the gaming to give more of an interaction so the disabled children receive more information. As seen through the information above, gaming can affect education positively in many ways as so can other forms of technology.

As the fact states above, the more education a country or person has, the more they can help others and benefit everyone for (hopefully) the greater good. Education is effected everywhere with the use of technology and hopefully with that fact in place, life can advance and education can grow and continue at the state of progression.
Benefits for Students and Teachers
