Hollywood and Videogames

You Can Improve Cognition, Aging, and Pain

Love them or hate them, watching movies and playing games allow us to learn at light-speed. Thismeans that using them as a tool in teaching is a no-brainer. Every day, we see how this medium dictates what we believe and how it influences behavior, for better and for worse. Our future is dependent upon the “viewers” learning how to verify accuracy, and the future of learning depends upon the willingness to harness what engages.

I don’t like that this is better than traditional, but if we use it, they get it faster, and we maximize instruction time. Writing, reading, math, speaking using games, TV, movies, and documentaries could revolutionize learning!

Video Games help relationships and learning?

I was shocked to hear playing video games improves learning speed for all kinds of things. Also surprising to see studies showed that watching a movie bonds people watching, cool. I can't believe prosocial movies improve feelings toward a spouse by 24%. That's a huge deal! Awesome!
