[Technology 1389] Re: IBM Introduces Video Game to Help University Students Develop Business SkillsEric Bragg bragge324 at gmail.comThu Nov 22 15:45:22 EST 2007
Mary, Thanks for your post. I found this article very interesting. I think that people learn best by doing. As an educator, I have found that my students retain so much more if I have created an interactive lesson. This program seems to accommodate aural, visual, and kinesthetic learners. This software seems to be very innovative in that it is educational and engaging. From the description and the pictures, it seems that this software is an IT department's version of The Sims. Have you used this software before? Does IBM have ambition to release k-12 software that has similar curriculum goals? I am very interested in this product. Thanks again.
