The article was about how people are aiming to fix americas failing schools by having educaional video games and not books. From what the article says the video games are going to teach as well as entertain. The article also states that the video games won't be any type of violent video games that would encourage aggresive behavior. Schools are starting or already started testing if video games help kids learn. My opinion is that i guess the video games might help some kids get their grades higher and hel pthem learn. So if it does work then schools that are failing should use this method if it doesnt work then the schools have to get some ideas similar to this. The idea of having video games teach is a good idea because its something that most kids are inerested in so why not have it teach kids while they play. They should start using stuff kids are interested in and turn it into somethng that will help kids learn.
