The lectures are fascinating, but to be honest, I find the animations an occasionally entertaining, often annoying distraction. Soundbytes, even imageBytes, are not often the best way to digest something.
In the talk, Zimbardo fails to explicitly say that video games reinforce the present hedonistic mentality. He implies it, but doesn't say it explicitly.
Seemed like he had this grand overall idea, but then it was overshadowed by his prejudices. Every generation is going to bash the younger one, for being less than they were. If we were to revert into a society based on "work", where every person devoted their lives to working, and improving the world and society for more efficient working - what kind of an ant-hill world would that be? Where human creativity is nonexistent, and a clear decisive future is always out of reach... WORK FOR NO WORK?
I agree with your basic analysis but your value judgements show you are prejudiced from your background. Short story, I disagree with your conclusions.
I always feel like i understand these videos while i'm watching them, but when it's finally over i realize that i have no clue what they just talked about..
Funny How the RSAnimatie concept proves what zimbardo is saying. Just listening is not enough anymore, is boring. It has to be combined with animations!
Wow. This explains why my ex-girlfriend and I had such different views on life. She was always talking abt investing money, studying more and planning ur time. I loved for the moment and had a lot more fun. We learnt a lot from each other and I do believe each viewpoint can have benefits. I learnt to save money and she learnt how to let go of her barriers and have a good time
Little bit one sided talk and an empty conclusion.
I think of myself as hedonistic, that doesn't mean I don't think about the consequences when I drink for example. I have to think about the future and work hard to maximize my overall life pleasure.
I love this video, however, i totally disagree with the family orientation relying on family meals. My family has never had sit down family meals however we are a tight-knit family in itself. I prefer to believe that it is more in the upbringing of the children themselves that enforces the idea of "family".
You just forgot the most important thing about raising future oriented kids: to be future oriented you need future prospects. Even kids who have been taught to have future oriented vision of life will lose it when they realize that their life is going to suck in the future and start focus on the present. But this is a cool idea, I realized this when I went to university. Success started to depend simply on how ppl were looking forward to their career and not on how smart each person is.
@CarlosP47 I think this is a very valid point. I want to have goals, to work hard; etc... but I look at the world now and think what's the point? The actions of the generations before us are causing such a mess that we've been thrown into and left to deal with that it's overwhelming beyond words.
The bad decisions we had no hand in making are causing consequences we have trouble seeing a way to fix.
I save my money, but still find ways to live for the moment without stressing over things too much. It wasn't easy to find a balance in order to make this possible but it's working pretty well for me so far.
theres another type of present oriented pepole you know, pepole who actually understand that the past and the future dont actually exist, for us that is , and that your reality really is an endless now. sure you can change the future, but you do it now, not tommrow, you can learn from you past but investing energy in what might have been is just plain silly.
and you can get stuff done without planning as well. just putting your will to it and moving with the world twords it.
@randompzqm That's true, but isn't that sort of present-oriented behaviour going against nature? Our brains do serve to memorise past events and form rough predictions based on past event and information. So, people are naturally past and present-oriented and pretty much meant to be that way. However, it may also be a natural thing of the brain to have come up with the rational idea that you shared.
theres a big difference between remembering the past and learning from it and having your lifes focus in the past. being emotionally invested in it. same with planning the future.
we are most effective at influencing the world when actually in the now. just try playing an instrument or working with wood while focusing on yesterdays events or your plans for later and see for yourself =]
I would like to point out the irony of this video. He says around 6:40 that some kids today tend to grow up with video games and technology and don't fit in to traditional classrooms, because they aren't interactive. They can't focus on the professors/teachers, because they don't have to pictures. The irony is that these RSA animate videos have animations, and thats why they're so popular. It really helps prove his point, I think.
I don't quite agree with your viewing present oriented as bad. Not all present oriented people smoke, nor do they have unprotected sex. They live for pleasure and if they are smart, they make sure they can live for pleasure for a long time.
6:09 - 6:12 "Probably more watching pornography alone", thumbs up for the 4 hrs everyday since you hit 14, with all this porn it's a wonder we find time for playing games.
I think the last part means that when you know what a person's time perspective is, you'll be able to understand them better. At the end of the video it is stated that once you understand that most of the conflict in life is due to differences in time perspective, you'll be able to stop making negative assumptions or attributions about others, like saying someone is "pig headed or authoritarian". Hope this helps.
Kinda... If anything I could see it meaning that our perception of the VALUE of our time would lead us to certain actions. i.e.: I'm more important than you cuz I'm trying to do something with my life while u just sit around. in that sense we value others based on how we perceive them valuing their own time. sorry if it sounded jumbled...
thanks for the reply and effort at clarification!!!
that last part seemed a bit ambiguous, how can understanding time perspective allow one to not see another as pig headed or authoritarian? Is it just an internal validation of their behavior since it is now known that their time perception is a factor in their behavior? Elaboration is greatly appreciated.
Someone might be authoritarian not because they want to restrict people's rights and put others below him, but because he wants to get things going smoothly with a certain goal in mind. It's the same reason why people go with the slippery slope argument, because it makes sense to them. Others who are more inclined to think that environment and people adjust themselves routinely regard it as folly. Funnily enough, nowadays the worst totalitarianists are anti-fascists.
@seefoo113 From what I Understand its like this. If you get up at 6 oclock in the morning and have a relaxed lunch for half hour to an hour and your hypothetical son gets up at 7:30 for a 10 minute snack before school. You best be ready for his worldwind of go time and you can't be asking him to sit down and chat cause he will miss the hypothetical bus.
I work at Boston Pizza as a cook. And it can get extremely boring there. But thankfully, I work with a very intelligent staff. People who like talking about philosophy, psychology, economics, politics, etc etc. And thanks to you, RSAnimate, for giving us so many topics and so much information. You are creating "Future minded teenagers."
@agnosticChurchworker I envy you. You are lucky. I have low self-esteem issues and often get depressed and when I do, I ponder about reality and society in an attempt to change the way I view my life and the world to make myself feel better. But it's still hard for me to realise anything just by thinking by myself. So I've always wanted to have at least one person to talk about psychology and philosophy with. However, I'm ashamed that such topics only interest me because of self-interest.
@KoreaRwkz I totally get where you're coming from. But the reality is, that there are plenty closeted intellectuals out there. Sadly, the generation that is in high school today no longer understands the value of intellectualism. Just today, I called my brother a Philistine. He's 17 and a high school "graduate." HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANT.
You really just have to be patient and search or watch for fellow-minded people. We're out there. But not in droves. And not in public.
@agnosticChurchworker You are one of them, right? (A closeted intellectual). Do you know why you are passionate about scientific truth and knowledge, mathematics, or languages? (Assuming that you are). I always wondered about that - about why alot of very smart people are naturally strongly interested in science and math. I respect these people because they are what I think a human should be.
@agnosticChurchworker Sadly, my very slight interest in science is only the result of my misfit in modern society. I think in our society, people's minds are too filled with puppy love and vanity. I want to enjoy this luxury too but I can't. I am both not good-looking and self-conscious about it.
btw I had to look up the online dictionary for the word 'Philistine' too, lol. Most of the present population are philistines, aren't they?
@KoreaRwkz On the contrary, I'm openly horrified with modern culture. Humans today are selfish. That's the bottom line. They want instant gratification. We were just discussing at work last night video games, as an example. The reality is, people will become bored with 3D and eventually 4D games. What happens when this happens? Gladiator's return. The movies 'Death Race' and that one with that ex-wrestler on an island weren't that far from the truth.
@KoreaRwkz Humans are no longer an inherently intelligent race. It's no longer a gift we start life with, but one we must 'work' and 'study' to become. Which in it's most distilled form, is bullshit. Everyone is brilliant in their own way. But the world has become so materialized and consumer-ized that it no longer matters. Joe the Plumber is not passionate anymore. Because passion doesn't pay. And having the most money is what this world is now all about.
@agnosticChurchworker Yes. The conventional education system that probably all developed countries have adopted and practised is making Math and Science less able to capture the interest of students. It is all about memorisation now. There's a suggestion that many share - that our education system is to turn people into obedient workers and not as much to awaken people's interest in scientific reality and intellectual potential.
@agnosticChurchworker I am horrified at modern culture too. As in literally afraid to live in such a society, especially since I'm sensitive to criticism. Human society is pretty weird. We coexist but not exactly peacefully, it's more like we were forced to fit in with a group that someone with power has made plans for us to. Some of us have to be paranoid of each other - "Can't trust that guy.", "Don't want him/her to think I'm weird.", "I look funny, should expect mockery
@KoreaRwkz Easiest way to view it is that you are the new addition to the family and the rest of the world is your in-laws. You don't like most of them, nor vice versa. But you put up with them cause you don't have much choice.
Personally, my view on fixing this is to have a World War occur. People will bond together for a greater cause. They tried it with 'Global Warming,' but the average person in their hedonism dismisses it. What's needed is a happenstance that effects all humans equally.
Is it really true that global warming is just a white lie created to bond humans together?
If you don't mind, could you share with me your views on low self-esteem due to bad physical appearance? I'm feeling pretty desperate for a conversation on this topic.
@KoreaRwkz To answer this, I must first be clear. 'Global Warming,' or what people really should be calling it, Climate Change, is very real and happening. But it's not unusual. It's happened before. It'll happen again. I'm not saying Climate Change itself is a white lie, but the hype of it is.
Yes, we can do more to help the environment. But the reality is, if we stopped polluting everything right now, it'll still happen. It'll just take longer. It's procrastination, is what it is.
@agnosticChurchworker Think of it like this, you have a pot of water out in the sun, it gradually heats reaching, say, 32 degrees Celsius. You get a new pot of water and place a screen of clear glass or perspex on top and insulate the sides. Yes, it will heat at a much faster rate, however, it will reach temperatures it was never meant to reach, say 45 degrees Celsius. This is not the way nature intended it.
@agnosticChurchworker Just to join in on this conversation with koreaRwkz (i've been highly interested in many of the topics chosen), and climate change. Yes, Climate change did happen in the past, however not to this extent.; with climate change happening at this rate the environment cannot sustain itself. The environment needs a gradual and steady increase so as to allow for evolution to play its part. also, with the accelerated pace of climate change comes new heights.
@agnosticChurchworker If you don't mind, could you share with me your views on low self-esteem due to bad physical appearance? I'm feeling pretty desperate for a conversation on this topic.
You guys should have a separate channel JUST for these animations. They're so great!
And sadly, it's true that people like me who play a lot of video games can't work well with analogue classrooms. I'm fairly certain I couldn't get through this whole talk if I'd seen it in real life, but the animations really help me focus and internalize what the speaker is saying.
@theRSAorg I'm a student in New York and have shown this to many of my teachers, and we all love them. I do hope that you continue to make these videos, the white-board animation is extremely helpful and helps draw people into these lectures who might've have otherwise not paid attention
Call of Duty modern warfater 3 Game made a billion in sixteen days, while James Cameron's epic Avatar(most expensive movie all time) took seventeen days to generate the same amount. The entertainment of the future already shifted towards gaming...... He is rite....
I would argue that World of Warcraft is a more intellectual endeavor than what boys did when I was a kid, which was watch TV. It demands teamwork, organization, mathematics, and gives young people a chance to meet and sometimes befriend and learn about people of all ages from all over the world. It shouldn't matter that a classroom is analog, the ideas and the challenges are the same regardless of the media with which they are conveyed. I believe your hypothesis demands stronger evidence.
@TheBigMclargehuge The problem with these games is that you aren't physically interacting with these people in real life. Sure you may have watched TV more than my generation does but you also (i'm guessing) interacted socially with your peers in the real world more than we do now. We don't know how to properly interact in reality because we are so used to these fictitious worlds. This in turn makes kids bored/scared of reality and they just go back to their fantasy land.
@Connorpei You have a tall order proving that physical interaction is the only quality human interaction. A lot of the hardcore gamers game with people they know IRL.
"We don't know how to properly interact in reality" When you speak on the telephone it isn't reality? That's the same thing as ventrilo. Kids have always been frightened of reality. It's frightening. Before my time, kids used books and comics to escape. Those damned books, kids were living in a fantasy land!!
@TheBigMclargehuge The difference between comics and video games is that comics aren't interactive. You don't control the actions of the super hero, you're just reading about it. Games these days are trying to make you feel like you are the character you are playing as, removing yourself for the real world and placing yourself if that character. And I'm not talking per say about the "Hardcore Gamer" (Which you should first define since it means many things)
@Connorpei You are still within the constraints of invisible walls and a plot. Yes you can choose if you use shotgun or grenades, but the story is going to be the same at the end of each level. Now, as far as removing yourself from the real world and placing yourself in a character... Isn't that what you do in a good fiction? If you ever read, you should know this.
@TheBigMclargehuge Again you seem to be missing the point, Video Games are INTERACTIVE. You do not control the actions of the characters in the book, you are being told a story. Even when that story is written in such a way to make it seem like you are the character, you know you have no control over what happens because it was written by someone else. With videogames you have full control over what you do, you become that "soldier" on the "battlefield".
It's funny because he talks about how boring traditional education is and the entire purpose of RSA Animate is to help you focus on the lecture with drawings.
The man talking needs to become the minister of edu. in germany asap.... Yes, school was always boring and the only interesting medium there was the beamer. I can only hope the change from the "analog" class room to a more digital one will be within the next 5 years. *keeps on dreaming*
@MaxwellTurn .... I just meant that the videos feel like a person simplifying more complex issues than actual lectures that have evidence backing them up. Using Ockham's razor to justify the videos' simplicities is silly.
@PolitcalIslam Occam's Razor is entirely appropriate in the case of most the subjects covered by the RSA lectures which are open to the members of the public. They are not part of a course, they aren't required modules of a course. To you, maybe, the subject is crystal clear, but, to what I suppose is the vast majority of ordinary people, psychology is something of a 'black art' .
These PUBLIC lectures help to cast some light where it greatly needed.
I'm a 16-years-old guy from México, I've seen several videos of you and they really impress me, and I have to say they have changed my life and the way I used to act before I saw your videos. Thank you
I love these animated videos! They're so enlightening for me. I'm a 21 year old American college student and I've often felt unmotivated about my future. I just seem to have no sense of time. It's not like I do poorly in school I just wish I had more flexibility and didn't feel like I was being rushed. I would rather learn, collaborate, critically think, and do less busy paperwork. Sometimes I feel educators (and employers) are trying to fit everyone into a box i.e. cubicle, punchcard and all.
@mitchelnext are you sure you referring to the right Zimbardo. In 1971 he single handedly provided key evidence for Tajfel's social identity theory, which is a major discipline is socio cultural psychology. Every single psychological experiment contains flaws, but personally I've never heard major criticisms for his methodologies, though his experiments may be ethically questionable.
this is absolutely the most informative video i have ever seen on youtube until today and i think i will start watching all of your videos from the very beginning. thank you so much for all the information. and your way of telling us is pretty interesting and the drawing are absolutely great :D
@Galloh It sounds like - for this speaker at least - a more future-oriented society is *not* the goal. He's arguing that being a little less work-oriented and a little more flexible, slower, and more creative might help build stronger families and find ways to keep boys more engaged in school.
@RangeRxK for me school has'nt been boring - it was present. For me, when school made me having the feeling of solving problems, of becoming able doing new things, which I wasn't able before - I felt so well, kind of satisfaction.
It is the ability giving a "student" this feeling, that makes a good teacher, I believe. This feeling is absolutely motivation enough, no need of discussion about future usability, of what you are learning.
The best perspectives come from kids of today- I'm 16- I've lived with video games all my life and computers most of my life. The professor is exactly spot on- I don't find homework as rewarding as instant happiness because it is not guaranteed homework will bring future success. Why would I get a degree when there's a good chance it will be completely useless? Of course I think better than that, but I know for sure that is what is going through many of my peers' minds. Motivation is the key!
I will stay focused on the now, with family and friends. It's the only 'time' that can be lived. (and still make a few plans too) Now looking back, can see the difference it made, being with smiley teachers (or friends). A simple thing, yet very welcoming.
this is so interesting! my boyfriend is very "future" focused and i'm waaay more focused on the past and old memories! but we get along great! i guess the saying "opposites attract" is pretty spot on! ;)
@RangeRxK That's the loveliest comment ever - thank you so much, we're just really so glad that everyone is responding so positively to our content :)
@theRSAorg nice to hear, and its my pleasure, you have very inspirational things on your channel. for the last hour i have been watching various videos. :)
@theRSAorg These videos are the most creative and informative videos that I enjoy watching. Please continue to make more. These videos promote thinking and coming up with new ideas. Beautiful. :)
@PrometheanRunGood i think i may be classed as the lucky few of my age. life starting to hit me and its starting to become clear that its not all fun and games. :) try grab everything that comes to me in my life as quick as possible before they dissapear.
@cogybear i know right. but when you look back at your child hood and how much fun you have had with your friends. sometime you wish you can go back to it :) ( cant believe my first comment on this video has now had 23 thumbs up :D )
I agree so much with what this video has to say. A little example of what goes through my head when I'm thinking about getting ahead in my school work,
"I should do this now. I have free time, and then I won't have to do it later."
"Screw it I'll worry about that later, I'll just play some Team Fortress 2 right now."
This happens to me all the time. In fact, it's happening right now. Yes, I'm watching and commenting on this video right now because frankly, it's far more exciting right now.
Haha, no wonder my brothers dropped out of school and never come downstairs to talk to us or even eat with us. This video explains it. My brothers drew up in the digital world constantly.
@mux9000 Why would you do that? Video games are great experiences that are enjoyable and memorable (I'm not talking about COD) and in my opinion they are better than movies since they allow you to be part of the experience more so. There is nothing wrong with playing video games, only with playing them too much.
I agree with this. I had a teacher that often used "concept maps" when lecturing over difficult subjects such as the anatomy and physiology of the cardiac conduction cycle. We basically did the same thing as this video. We took at the information that we needed to know, and mapped out in color pictures and captions everything we needed to know.
That same teacher even posted youtube videos of his lectures that are basically the exact same concept as this video, minus the amazingart
You can be in the present and not be a hedonist or a fatalist. There are (gasp) even whole schools of philosophy that involve embracing hard work while focusing on the present. This is propaganda.
I played all my life computer games and I tell you what he says is so much not true! I am the most family oriented, multi time aware (not these stupid categories), and able to learn in a direct or interactive way.
Soo wrong statements, its just culture oriented raceism, built by fixed and cateogrized understandings of perception (of time). How he explains the differences is just so wrong.
'Go to school so you can get a job.' There is so much wrong with this statement, namely far too emphasis on future-mindedness. The pursuit of knowledge should be present minded and hedonistic! Children should be shown that knowledge is useful! Being more intelligent will get you a girlfriend, improve your social group and much more! Here and now, this is interesting.
The lectures are fascinating, but to be honest, I find the animations an occasionally entertaining, often annoying distraction. Soundbytes, even imageBytes, are not often the best way to digest something.

I think the last part means that when you know what a person's time perspective is, you'll be able to understand them better. At the end of the video it is stated that once you understand that most of the conflict in life is due to differences in time perspective, you'll be able to stop making negative assumptions or attributions about others, like saying someone is "pig headed or authoritarian". Hope this helps.

@Absolyst
Kinda... If anything I could see it meaning that our perception of the VALUE of our time would lead us to certain actions. i.e.: I'm more important than you cuz I'm trying to do something with my life while u just sit around. in that sense we value others based on how we perceive them valuing their own time. sorry if it sounded jumbled...
thanks for the reply and effort at clarification!!!

ZombieNewb 1 month ago 2
that last part seemed a bit ambiguous, how can understanding time perspective allow one to not see another as pig headed or authoritarian? Is it just an internal validation of their behavior since it is now known that their time perception is a factor in their behavior? Elaboration is greatly appreciated.
Thank you brothers and sisters!

Someone might be authoritarian not because they want to restrict people's rights and put others below him, but because he wants to get things going smoothly with a certain goal in mind. It's the same reason why people go with the slippery slope argument, because it makes sense to them. Others who are more inclined to think that environment and people adjust themselves routinely regard it as folly. Funnily enough, nowadays the worst totalitarianists are anti-fascists.

@agnosticChurchworker I envy you. You are lucky. I have low self-esteem issues and often get depressed and when I do, I ponder about reality and society in an attempt to change the way I view my life and the world to make myself feel better. But it's still hard for me to realise anything just by thinking by myself. So I've always wanted to have at least one person to talk about psychology and philosophy with. However, I'm ashamed that such topics only interest me because of self-interest.

@KoreaRwkz I totally get where you're coming from. But the reality is, that there are plenty closeted intellectuals out there. Sadly, the generation that is in high school today no longer understands the value of intellectualism. Just today, I called my brother a Philistine. He's 17 and a high school "graduate." HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANT.
You really just have to be patient and search or watch for fellow-minded people. We're out there. But not in droves. And not in public.
agnosticChurchworker 3 weeks ago
@agnosticChurchworker You are one of them, right? (A closeted intellectual). Do you know why you are passionate about scientific truth and knowledge, mathematics, or languages? (Assuming that you are). I always wondered about that - about why alot of very smart people are naturally strongly interested in science and math. I respect these people because they are what I think a human should be.
KoreaRwkz 3 weeks ago
@agnosticChurchworker Sadly, my very slight interest in science is only the result of my misfit in modern society. I think in our society, people's minds are too filled with puppy love and vanity. I want to enjoy this luxury too but I can't. I am both not good-looking and self-conscious about it.
btw I had to look up the online dictionary for the word 'Philistine' too, lol. Most of the present population are philistines, aren't they?
KoreaRwkz 3 weeks ago
@KoreaRwkz On the contrary, I'm openly horrified with modern culture. Humans today are selfish. That's the bottom line. They want instant gratification. We were just discussing at work last night video games, as an example. The reality is, people will become bored with 3D and eventually 4D games. What happens when this happens? Gladiator's return. The movies 'Death Race' and that one with that ex-wrestler on an island weren't that far from the truth.
agnosticChurchworker 3 weeks ago
@KoreaRwkz Humans are no longer an inherently intelligent race. It's no longer a gift we start life with, but one we must 'work' and 'study' to become. Which in it's most distilled form, is bullshit. Everyone is brilliant in their own way. But the world has become so materialized and consumer-ized that it no longer matters. Joe the Plumber is not passionate anymore. Because passion doesn't pay. And having the most money is what this world is now all about.
agnosticChurchworker 3 weeks ago
@agnosticChurchworker Yes. The conventional education system that probably all developed countries have adopted and practised is making Math and Science less able to capture the interest of students. It is all about memorisation now. There's a suggestion that many share - that our education system is to turn people into obedient workers and not as much to awaken people's interest in scientific reality and intellectual potential.
KoreaRwkz 3 weeks ago
@agnosticChurchworker I am horrified at modern culture too. As in literally afraid to live in such a society, especially since I'm sensitive to criticism. Human society is pretty weird. We coexist but not exactly peacefully, it's more like we were forced to fit in with a group that someone with power has made plans for us to. Some of us have to be paranoid of each other - "Can't trust that guy.", "Don't want him/her to think I'm weird.", "I look funny, should expect mockery

@KoreaRwkz Easiest way to view it is that you are the new addition to the family and the rest of the world is your in-laws. You don't like most of them, nor vice versa. But you put up with them cause you don't have much choice.
Personally, my view on fixing this is to have a World War occur. People will bond together for a greater cause. They tried it with 'Global Warming,' but the average person in their hedonism dismisses it. What's needed is a happenstance that effects all humans equally.
agnosticChurchworker 3 weeks ago
@agnosticChurchworker Yes, that's right.
Is it really true that global warming is just a white lie created to bond humans together?
If you don't mind, could you share with me your views on low self-esteem due to bad physical appearance? I'm feeling pretty desperate for a conversation on this topic.
KoreaRwkz 3 weeks ago
@KoreaRwkz To answer this, I must first be clear. 'Global Warming,' or what people really should be calling it, Climate Change, is very real and happening. But it's not unusual. It's happened before. It'll happen again. I'm not saying Climate Change itself is a white lie, but the hype of it is.
Yes, we can do more to help the environment. But the reality is, if we stopped polluting everything right now, it'll still happen. It'll just take longer. It's procrastination, is what it is.

@agnosticChurchworker Think of it like this, you have a pot of water out in the sun, it gradually heats reaching, say, 32 degrees Celsius. You get a new pot of water and place a screen of clear glass or perspex on top and insulate the sides. Yes, it will heat at a much faster rate, however, it will reach temperatures it was never meant to reach, say 45 degrees Celsius. This is not the way nature intended it.

@agnosticChurchworker Just to join in on this conversation with koreaRwkz (i've been highly interested in many of the topics chosen), and climate change. Yes, Climate change did happen in the past, however not to this extent.; with climate change happening at this rate the environment cannot sustain itself. The environment needs a gradual and steady increase so as to allow for evolution to play its part. also, with the accelerated pace of climate change comes new heights.

I would argue that World of Warcraft is a more intellectual endeavor than what boys did when I was a kid, which was watch TV. It demands teamwork, organization, mathematics, and gives young people a chance to meet and sometimes befriend and learn about people of all ages from all over the world. It shouldn't matter that a classroom is analog, the ideas and the challenges are the same regardless of the media with which they are conveyed. I believe your hypothesis demands stronger evidence.
TheBigMclargehuge 1 month ago
@TheBigMclargehuge The problem with these games is that you aren't physically interacting with these people in real life. Sure you may have watched TV more than my generation does but you also (i'm guessing) interacted socially with your peers in the real world more than we do now. We don't know how to properly interact in reality because we are so used to these fictitious worlds. This in turn makes kids bored/scared of reality and they just go back to their fantasy land.
Connorpei 1 month ago
@Connorpei You have a tall order proving that physical interaction is the only quality human interaction. A lot of the hardcore gamers game with people they know IRL.
"We don't know how to properly interact in reality" When you speak on the telephone it isn't reality? That's the same thing as ventrilo. Kids have always been frightened of reality. It's frightening. Before my time, kids used books and comics to escape. Those damned books, kids were living in a fantasy land!!
TheBigMclargehuge 1 month ago
@TheBigMclargehuge The difference between comics and video games is that comics aren't interactive. You don't control the actions of the super hero, you're just reading about it. Games these days are trying to make you feel like you are the character you are playing as, removing yourself for the real world and placing yourself if that character. And I'm not talking per say about the "Hardcore Gamer" (Which you should first define since it means many things)
Connorpei 1 month ago
@Connorpei You are still within the constraints of invisible walls and a plot. Yes you can choose if you use shotgun or grenades, but the story is going to be the same at the end of each level. Now, as far as removing yourself from the real world and placing yourself in a character... Isn't that what you do in a good fiction? If you ever read, you should know this.

TheBigMclargehuge 1 month ago
@TheBigMclargehuge Again you seem to be missing the point, Video Games are INTERACTIVE. You do not control the actions of the characters in the book, you are being told a story. Even when that story is written in such a way to make it seem like you are the character, you know you have no control over what happens because it was written by someone else. With videogames you have full control over what you do, you become that "soldier" on the "battlefield".

@RangeRxK for me school has'nt been boring - it was present. For me, when school made me having the feeling of solving problems, of becoming able doing new things, which I wasn't able before - I felt so well, kind of satisfaction.
It is the ability giving a "student" this feeling, that makes a good teacher, I believe. This feeling is absolutely motivation enough, no need of discussion about future usability, of what you are learning.

The best perspectives come from kids of today- I'm 16- I've lived with video games all my life and computers most of my life.

Why would I get a degree when there's a good chance it will be completely useless? Of course I think better than that, but I know for sure that is what is going through many of my peers' minds.
