Talk:Educational game

message: This article should be moved to "Educational computer and video game" as there is surely are categories of "Educational games" which do not use a computer or video game console. Anyone disagree? --Malcohol 15:58, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Surely a better approach is just to expand this page in such a way that it covers non-electronic games as well? If somebody adds so much information to the article that it looks like it needs splitting, then that would certainly be a split worth considering (though I'd be unhappy with that title, as you can't really have "one computer and video game"). But I think we're a long way off that as yet, so I'd say just let the content grow for now. - IMSoP 17:49, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: As I don't have any particular content to add myself, I accept your reasoning. Note that there's already 37 articles that link to this one and the longer it is before a split happens the more drastic any change will be. (Some of these links are due to its presence in the Video Game Genre template.)--Malcohol 13:42, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I clarified (I hope) the introduction of the article, mentioning the article is about "regular" games as well as video games, but (at the moment) primarily deals with the latter. I think I agree with Malcohol; information about the regular kind should be added here as well, until there is enough content to split it of. Otherwise renaming the article would make sense; maybe "computer educational games" or something similar, like computer role-playing game? Of course that would mean reworking a bunch of categories, computer and video game genres, and the like. Retodon8 15:45, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I added the advertising template to the article because it definitely reads like a place for those with tenuously notable educational games (other than the very popular ones such as Scrabble) to advertise their game on the World Wide Web. I think that we should have very little advertising on the page, myself. Andy Saunders 20:30, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

message: The Guitar Hero series does not actually teach music. The game controller is not an actual guitar of course and you do  not learn to read music. I state that it should be removed. 71.202.232.211 04:23, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

message: some games "used in education":
civilization 4(history classes)
capitalism (corporate training)
this thing is good but doses not fit well in article. All games listed are used in schools. 
Maybe we need section with title "mainstream games with educational qualities"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.250.34.243 (talk) 19:24, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  games "used in education" 

message: Are we considering only computer games in the article, or board games etc. as well? It makes a big difference for linking articles in different languages properly. Articles we are linked to in German and Russian are about games in general, while in Italian and Ukrainian they are about computer games only. In Russian exists another article ru:Обучающая игра, dedicated particularly to computer games. Maybe, we should create a stab about educational games in general in English, and link German and Russian articles to it? Oleksiy.golubov (talk) 18:28, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

message: The section titled "Game-based learning" has serious issues. Firstly, no references are given. It would be great if the contributor reveals the source for the content. The 2 sentences are exactly similar to the introductory lines on the page http://edtechreview.in/dictionary/298-what-is-game-based-learning.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by UpperDeccan (talk • contribs) 07:22, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

message: I removed this section (below) and am placing it here. The section is titled "Neurological Context" but it is about game design. It quotes and references Thiagi, a non-notablegame website. The reference doesn't have anything to do with the quote. CerealKillerYum (talk) 07:27, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
