According to a Scottish school, students playing computer games daily helps increasing their Maths score.
An organization called Learning and Teaching Scotland recently carried a study on the effects of a brain training game. The study not only revealed positive effects on Maths score but also helped in improving concentration and behavior of students.
The study was carried out on 600 students from 32 schools across Scotland using Brain Training game from Dr. Kawashima game on Nintendo DS.
The study involved tests based on reading, problem-solving and memory puzzles for 20 minutes at the start of the class for nine weeks. Whereas the other lessons were carried out without any change. The scores improved by a further 50% as stated by researchers. The time given for the tests was reduced by five minutes as the study progressed from 18.5 minutes to 13.5 minutes. Less able students showed more improvement than that of the highest scorers but almost everyone had an increased perception of their own ability.
Thus study also showed improvements in absenteeism and lateness in few classes.
This study shows that introduction of a simple computer game in an educational context can help improvement in scores.
