Games to be tested in classrooms - BBC
Games like The Sims provide opportunities to experiment. The use of computer games in education is going to be tested out in four secondary schools in the UK. The project aims to find ways in which school teachers can include video games in their teaching. It will also be trying to help game developers learn about potential educational uses for their products. The year-long project is being backed by the games giant Electronic Arts (EA) and lottery-funded education organisation Futurelab.
