Gamers Studied for Learning Skillz

Indiana, the great sock-shaped state in the heartland of North America. It has everything: corn, rolling landscapes, me, researchers studying gamers learning techniques. What more could you ask for from a state?

Indiana University researchers are delving into the gaming world. They've found that students who are avid gamers learn better with trial by error. That's right... you give a child multiple chances and at some point they'll get it right. Those IU researchers, they are the tip of the top, I'm telling you!

In all seriousness though, where was this study when I was in school? I could have used a few more tries on some of those Spanish tests. Oh well, at least they are getting it done now. Keep up the good work, guys!
