New research shows benefits of computer games for young children
Researchers at the University of California Davis say computer games and other digital technologies can help foster a sense of community and improve thinking skills in very young students. In a recent study researchers observed kindergarten and first grade students who played computer games during their free time.
UC Davis Associate professor of education Cynthia Carter Ching says the games did not isolate the children. Rather, they found ways to play and strategize together.
