My Personal experiences with games and simulations has varied. I am an avid video gamer however I have found it has come in the way of many activities I should be attending or work that needs to be done. It is however educational in that if you use it for those purposes I however use video games as a leisure activity that leads to game play hours on end. I have not used nor have I been taught in way where games and simulation were used which is kind surprising to me. Many of my peers at other universities or colleges have had some kind of experience where gaming and simulation was used to facilitate a class exercise and/or by the teacher in the classroom. However with the way technology has grown I feel this will be only the main way classes will be taught. The tools used will be not pencil and paper but computer and tablet based. Which to me makes it a little interesting because not only will you be learning about whatever the subject may be but you will also be learning about the device or devices used to facilitate the lesson.
