. . . to High Content Games. We have selected the best games available today for those interested in substance and a rich, intellectually engaging gaming experience. These are not "educational" games. These are real games that real people play just for real fun! Every High Content game is first and foremost a game. They also happen to be natural learning vehicles that have thematic content and/or intellectual challenge useful for academic enrichment. The games range in complexity from simple to very advanced, from family style to complex historical simulations. Most of our games will interest those at Middle School level and above, but there are some games appropriate for all ages. We want to sell those games that interest the life-long learner, no matter their age.
Enjoy yourself but be careful - you just might learn something!!
Many parents would probably be surprised to know that the
use of games as educational tools is a legitimate, respected area of study and
practice. Games, also known as simulations, are used extensively in diverse
environments from corporate training to military training, from the healthcare
industry to manufacturing. Decision-makers have discovered that people are more
interested when games or simulations are employed for training. This leads to
greater receptiveness, greater retention, and greater involvement in their
training. Many studies have been done over the last thirty years regarding the
effectiveness of games and simulations as educational tools. The majority of
these studies have shown superior math improvement with the use of games,
superior content retention with the use of games, and superior interest in the
subject matter.
