Using Video Games to Assess Students' Noncognitive Skills
This event takes place on
Friday, Sept. 27, 2013, 2 to 3 p.m. ET.
Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison believe new video games like Crystals of Kaydor and Tenacity can measure student learning in real time while literally rewiring kids' brains to help them pay better attention and improve their behavior.
It's digital media meets big data meets state-of-the art brain research. But can a role-playing video game about aliens change the way U.S. schools think about testing students and boost the noncognitive skills that are critical to success later in life?
Join our discussion led by a pair of prominent academic scholars as they discuss the implications of games designed to develop and assess grit, tenacity, and persistence.
