Gaming and Learning

After playing "Oregon Trail", i have found out some things I did not know about with the challenges of traveling to the West. You can easily make a mistake, and not make it with enough food, or your oxen get injured or die. You can even get yourself killed. Playing games in school can help students learn better, but it has to be with learning games, or games with accurate history basis. If you play Halo, for example, you learn nothing about history, but playing Call of Duty 1-4 and World at War, or even the Medal of Honor series can teach you about those wars that those games cover, from Pearl Harbor to Battle for Egypt.
