What if students spent as much time studying as they did playing video games? Most parents blame gaming as a distraction from studies, and their kids condemn schoolwork as pointless. Is there truly a way to make both sides happy? And is gaming actually the common denominator?
In this episode of Connect we go straight to the ultimate authority for answers to these questions and more as we speak with the “father of the video game industry,” founder of Atari, Nolan Bushnell and education trailblazer and CEO of Two Bit Circus Foundation Dr. Leah Hanes. We delve into their new book, “Shaping the Future of Education,” and learn about their latest endeavor: ExoDexa.
Additionally, we explore a completely new vision for education and what Nolan and Leah are doing to make it a reality. From the concept of “no grades, no grades,” makerspaces and “flow,” we’ll discuss how technology and gamification have the potential to inspire K to grey learning by meeting students where they are and teaching to their interests.
Join us for an inspiring conversation that mixes education, entrepreneurship and technology, and yes, a bit of old school gaming.
