Does Video Games Affect our Students?



Millions of people across the world play video games. Some play video games more than other. This brings up the question “Does videogames affect our high school student?”

A Philadelphian High School, Dominiq Gilyard, said “Videogames affect my homework in negative way because it affect my study time.” Some games can be different from other. For instance, if you buy a game that is educational it can benefit you in learning different things like math or English but if you buy a games that is action pack it can our student forget things they learned in school because they rather be more interesting in a action pack game.

Another Philadelphian High school student, Chyann Howard, said “ I play videogames for like half an hour or so.” She is passing all of her classes. Does the mean that if play videogames less hours you’ll be more focus on school work.

To sum it up people who play videogames less get more focus on school work than people who play it for hours and hours.
