Educators are now finding ways to leverage the popularity of video games into the classroom, using them to teach subjects like coding, science and math from within the game itself. They can also use games to help students develop skills for success in school and life, such as collaboration.

While some experts warn that gaming can be addictive, others say it offers a safe outlet for students who are isolated or have social anxiety. It can also encourage students to take risks, which is an essential skill for mastering difficult material.

The most effective educational games feature a strong, engaging narrative. “Humans are wired to connect with a story,” says Matthew Farber, a professor at the University of Northern Colorado and former teacher who studies the intersection of game-based learning and social emotional learning (SEL). In addition, a game’s structure can encourage students to inhabit different perspectives and consider alternative outcomes—an important aspect of metacognition, which helps people learn about themselves and their own decisions.
