Computer and Video Games

Computer and Video Games

Nowadays computers play very important role in our lives. We can't imagine our life without it. Children have already forgotten about the games they were playing in the yard with their friends. Now that games has moved in computers. They are playing with computers all day long.

There are different types of video and computer games: educational games, COTS games. COTS games are designed for enjoyment, challenge and fun. Educational games are designed for students to learn new things, overcome difficulties and solve problems which are risen in front of them. Such games of course enhance students' brain work and willingness to study. Even when educational games are designed to play with your peers, it is much more fun and motivating.

I also like playing video or computer games. It's really fun and also teaches you a lot of new words. I play such kind of games which inrich my vocabulary and also are educational. Mostly not all the games are educational and can teach you important things. They can show violence and impact on students psychology.According to the research studies there are thousands of games that teach violence and make young children aggressive. The psychologists Dr. Patrick Markey of Villanova University and Dr. Charlotte Markey of Rutgers University have presented evidence that some children may become more aggressive as a result of watching and playing violent games but that most are not affected. After reviewing the research they came to the conclusion that three personality traits can be risen after playing violent games. The three traits they identified were neuroticism, disagreeableness, and low levels of conscientiousness.The researchers concluded that video games and other online activities have become wide spread among young people that they have altered how young people socialize and learn.

In any case I also agree with the statement  that video games have much more violence in it, that's why i think students shouldn't play such kind of games and be aggressive
