2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th reply: “Here’s a list of animals that I’ve heard of!”
I really think that most “educational” games should be banned from laptops, and I’m putting Gimkit at the top of that list. I hate walking into classrooms and seeing all the kids purportedly doing a social studies review but really playing a bargain-basement side-scroller game.
But walking into a room where kids are visting PebbleGo or Encyclopedia Britannica, where they’re researching animals in different biomes and using that research to create analog quiz boards about physical and behavioral adaptations? Be still my heart: that’s education at its best, and laptops are better than paper books for that purpose IMO.
