What interested you in video games as a form of teaching?
I wanted to find a way to engage those studetns who are disengaged from traditional learning sessions. I knew that most of todays students are "entertainment" oriented, in other words it has to be high color, high action, high stimulus in order to get and keep their attention. With this in mind I looked to my own son for some inspriation. He was an add child who hated to read and was often disengaged in school - but he could spend hours moving Laura Croft through mazes and solving mysteries! This brought me to believe that this would be an excellent way to get students to engage the content that I wanted to learn. That being said I hope that I will be able to make a game that truly validates this hypothesis.
