Contemporary generation has been the recipient of vast technological applications including those which are offered in the area of entertainment, leisure and games. Despite the obvious magnanimity of the benefits gained from advances in these facets, there are those which have left an indelible mark in terms of the negative effects that impact on a specifically defined sector of the population. Video games, for instance, have been notorious for contributing to evident changes in behavior of children which are synonymous with the games being played (Anderson & Warburton, 2010; Sherry, 2001). One hereby contends that violent video games are significantly detrimental ...

Introduction

The recent technological advancements have led to increased involvement in computer and video games, leading to an overuse of these games such that it interferes with daily life (Van et al., 2011). There have been reported cases whereby people have become addicts of video and computer games to the extent that they are unable to socially interact with their close friends and family members. Medics and psychologists do not condemn playing of video games, but they are concerned with these games once a person becomes an addict and he or she focuses entirely on the games, without exhibiting the normal ...

Introduction

A very controversial issue among video game players is how playing violent video games contribute to aggressive behavior and problems in school for the youths. Video games provide a unique way for adolescents to entertain themselves. Non-violent games are found to be cognitively stimulating and help in increasing and improving learning, problem solving skills, and perceptual motor skills. These games allow the youth to become part of the story behind the online games they play as they embody the attributes of characters they choose. Unlike the old video games, contemporary video games are more refined and sophisticated that it ...

Introduction

The research topic is virtual reality on serious games in 2D. Virtual reality also referred to as virtual environment, refers to a computing technology that produces an artificial environment, which emulates the real world (Bennett 2014, p. 263). Serious games simulate reality in teaching and training environments (Crookall 2010, p. 898). The games play a role in enhancing the understanding of vital concepts, and the developing of cognitive skills. They are important pedagogic mediums since they are in a better position to encapsulate the imagination of learners than traditional teaching methods can.

Abstract

Games that are created for purposes other than entertainment are called serious games. The art of applying games on a day to day actions is known as gamification. The gaming elements in serious games can be utilized to simulate reality in teaching and training environments (Crookall 2010, p. 898). Deep learning is a new approach to education and disregards the traditional method where the teacher was the all-knowing authority who passed down facts to the students (Fullan and Langworthy 2014). The traditional method did not view the learning environment as a factor that could affect the learning process. Adult ...
