Positional changes from video and presentation

The video "Your brain on video games" presented a variety of information that I had not previously read. Mostly the lecturer's busting of myths of games leading to attention deficit and vision problems.

I also had not seen the "Are video games making kids smarter?" information on the increase in problem solving and IQ gains from video gaming.

I already agree most of the information in the Teens, Games and Civics section. Games can introduce students to new subjects to help in their general knowledge of how the world works. I do believe that the numbers are a bit dated because of subjects like dial-up internet and limited reference to massively multi-player online games (MMOs).
