Education and Games

Technology plays a significant role in the modern learning and it can be very valuable in assisting all the students including English language learners, and special education students.
Learning and education should develop and change to reflect changes in society. An example of a technology learning resource are games. Games may appeal to many students because there are interactive and hands-on. Recently,  I was introduced to Scratch which is an educational programming language and multimedia that allows the students to create interactive stories, games, and animations. Scratch helps young people learn essential skills such as to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively.

Here is an example of a Scratch project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/14574742/
