"In fact, you don't need to treat games and other forms of entertainment as scourges. With a little guidance, they will become a tool for fun and education, "Sam said seriously to the principal.
Admus was confused. "Fun and education? What do you mean? "
The term was a bit strange to Admus because he had never heard of it before. In school, it had always been education, education, and entertainment. Everything was separate.
Sam had been on Shandar for several months, and he had already discovered this problem in the school. Unique or lively and interesting lectures basically didn't exist here.
Teaching was rigorous and boring, and there were many things to learn. All of which required students to learn consciously and in a very hard way. It was not like on Earth, where outstanding teachers would often guide students to learn.
Because of the different development of civilization, on Earth, even school education was different from that of the Nova Corps. This could be said to be the difference in civilization choices.
Because the resources on Earth were more barren, people created a variety of spiritual entertainment products to numb the pain of real life. It was also because there were too many such spiritual entertainment products that students on Earth had to face more temptations.
Because there were more temptations, the education on Earth needed to be more diverse. Forced rote memorization was never a good method for education on Earth.
Fun and education made learning interesting. This was a problem that almost every educator on Earth was studying and discussing. How to make the classroom lively.
Let most students love learning. Among them, 50% of students passed, 30% were good, 15% were excellent, and 5% were top students. This was the ideal state of education.
Of course, Sam wasn't an educator, and he couldn't discuss the advantages of education with Admus.
Because everything Sam had said so far came from Nightcrawler's teaching (brainwashing) in the video.
"Yes, fun and education. It is to integrate education into entertainment, and the means of entertainment into the education system. Let students learn more interesting, and let them be more willing to devote themselves to learning. When learning becomes entertainment, when entertainment becomes learning. I believe all the students will fall in love with learning. "Sam tried to suppress his emotions.
In fact, this was the first time he was showing his opinion in front of a big shot (for a 16-year-old boy, his principal was definitely a big shot), so he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Even though Sam kept suppressing his emotions, his voice still trembled a little. Fortunately, Ademox didn't care about Sam's trembling voice. He only cared about Sam's concept of fun through education.
"Wait, what do you mean by that? You're saying that you know what you're doing, and you're spreading these consoles, but you're telling me that it's all for education? " Ademox looked at Sam as if he was an idiot. "Are you too smart, or am I too stupid?"
"No, no. Principal, you might not have understood what I meant. Actually, from Earth, I was brought back by Star-Lord of the Guardian of the Galaxy. He told me that my father's name was Richard, and that he was — "
Before Sam could finish, Ademox interrupted, "I know who your father is. What you're doing now is a disgrace to your father!"
"No! I don't want to disgrace my father's name. " Sam said very seriously, "I want to make some achievements here, in the Nova Corps, in high school."
"To tell you the truth, I want to achieve greater success. I want to attract everyone's attention, I want to be the best student in my grade! My father's Black Star Helmet was taken away by the Centurion. I want to get it back, and the premise of getting it back is that I can become the best student in my grade! "Sam said these words in one breath.
"Actually, I'm releasing a game console. I'm making these games so that you can see how attractive these games are to you, Principal."
Ademox looked at Sam incredulously. "Wait, you mean, you did all this on purpose?"
"Yes, that's right, I did it on purpose. Because only by releasing these consoles and letting everyone indulge in this kind of game can I stand here and talk to you now, and have more evidence to convince you. " Sam kept thinking about what Nightcrawler had taught him in the video. His speech was getting smoother and smoother, as if Nightcrawler had possessed him.
Ademox looked at Sam and asked, "Convince me of what?"
"The plan to implement entertainment terminals in the whole school," Sam said directly.
"Impossible! This will destroy the whole school! "Admus flatly refused.
But Sam was not discouraged. He continued to say, "You think it's impossible because you think the students will be addicted to the game. But as I said before, what if learning is changed into a game? In other words, the game itself is a kind of learning. "
"In this batch of entertainment terminals, there is a novel that I deliberately put in. It's called Ender's Game. I wonder if you've seen it, headmaster? "
Ademox thought for a while. In order to better understand the origin of the whole thing, he did look up all the information related to the game terminal, and it was this book that he roughly read.
"In Ender's Game, generals use games to train commanders. It's a very bold idea, but it can't be realized on Earth. This is because the technology on Earth and the environment we face have affected some of these fantasies, but the Nova Corps is different. However, the New Star Corps was different. They were able to research and develop the equipment mentioned in the novels. And the Xingxing Legion also needs to fight in space. "
"In fact, on Earth, the combination of games, actual combat, and learning is a very, very normal thing. For example, US soldiers use virtual reality games to simulate real battlefields and practice tactical movements and marksmanship. "
"This requires pilots to practice in a simulation cabin, simulating a flight. Only by simulating a flight and accumulating a considerable amount of time would one be able to board a real plane. You can also see flight simulation as a kind of game. "
"In fact, I have a very big idea, Mr. Principal. We can combine entertainment and games, and even use entertainment as a means of motivation. First, we can use free games to promote all games so that all the students in the school can play games, or like movies, novels, and anime. These things will make people addicted. "
"When everyone is addicted, we can lock these things. To unlock these entertainment items, you don't need to get higher scores in exams and practice. For example, if you get first place in the grade, you can get 1,000 credits. And 1,000 credits can unlock some of these entertainment items. The higher the score, the higher the reward mechanism. "
"We can use these scores to categorize the entire game. For example, bronze, silver, gold, diamond, king, and so on. Students with better scores will be able to show a higher rank in the entertainment terminal's Internet system, which will give them a sense of achievement. And this sense of achievement can actually be reflected in some entertainment items, to get a better entertainment experience. "
"We can also design some space games. There is a game called 'Eve' on Earth, we can change it into a teaching game suitable for large-scale combat for the new training corps. Some virtual reality games can also be used as tactical training for elite soldiers, and so on. "Sam stuttered at the beginning, but the more he spoke, the more fluent he became.
"As I said, Principal, I want to be a more outstanding student. Only by performing better and making greater contributions to the Legion can I get back the New Star Helmet that belongs to me. In the short term, some students' grades may decline, but in the long term, this is a great education reform. Why not give it a try? "
Sam's words were spoken with such conviction that, for a moment, Admus was convinced. Admus suddenly felt that Sam's words were not completely unreasonable. Maybe he should try it out?
