In the essay “Games” by
Steven Johnson writes about the differences between the video games and the
books. He also mentions that playing video games are not really bad for kids.
Instead today’s video games improve visual intelligence and skills. It depends
on the type of games kids are playing. In the other hand, reading books helps
to develop kids’ cognitive skills as well as to maintain attention. Being a
good reader also can benefit in future jobs and critical thinking. Moreover, he
also states even the most avid reader spend some time with other social media:
playing games, watching television, or the Internet. Also, playing video games
are not completely the waste of time, but when it comes to the discussion,
people often misrepresent it without playing and experiencing the real visual
games.
When we talk about Games
vs. Reading, we often choose reading as the most important aspects of life
because this will improve kids’ education and lead to the future job. In this
case, I think both are important for them because in our today’s world, social
media has been a way to learn and study our world. If we look around, there are
not single kids who does not know and play games. The games which are made for
kids are often animated and informative, which helps them to visualize and
memorize the things.
