Y. 2010 - 2011 A Research Proposal Presented to the Faculty of the College Department ________________________________ Quezon In partial fulfillment of the Requirements for Research 2 ________________________ October 2010 Chapter I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Computers are ubiquitous. As computers have become less expensive they have been purchased by more and more families for their homes. Because of this, many children begin to use computers at an early age. Even if computers are not available in their home, children almost certainly will begin to come into contact with computers in school. Some adults are amazed by how readily young children use computers. Many children find that using computers gives them a sense of power and accomplishment. And, unlike many adults whose first or primary contact with computers is work related, most children first use computers for entertainment purposes and games. This is by no means the only use that children have for computers. Because computer use is promoted in schools, and because computers are so ubiquitous, children have a great deal of exposure to them. Not everyone, however, is comfortable with the use of computers by young children. Some, including the Alliance for Childhood, have called for a halt to the...

Video games and console games usually mean gamesconnected to a TV, whereas arcade games means games placed in public spaces.Computer games on the other hand, are occasionally used to mean games played on apersonal computer. However, since all of these areas have been developed inclose parallel and because all of these games are played on computers, mostresearchers use the term computer game to represent all of these areas as a whole.Computer games first came into existence in the 1960s with the introductionof a shoot-up game.

If games are good for the mind, they must certainly have some effects on the academic performance ofthe players. When the students...

...Background of the Computer Games The computer game requires technology capable of handling large amounts of data and of representing this data. The relationship between a technological phenomenon such as the computer and the less formally based culture is not a simple one: some theories will claim that technology determines culture; some will claim that culture determines technology. It may be most reasonable to see this as a history of mutual influences, where technology can inspire (or enable) cultural developments and cultural developments can inspire new technology. To quote an obvious example, the computer game was originally developed on equipment designed for military and academic purposes. But today the computer game is the driving force in the development of much hardware such as 3d graphics accelerators. Space war! The first computer game. (1962) Chapter I – Introduction a.

...INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Computer has led to groundbreaking outcome which completely revolutionized the society. One display of these fast growing advancements to society is computer gaming. Teenagers who are playing these computer games said that they are playing these games just for fun, to keep away from the heat of the sun, without knowing that there are a lot of effects of playing these games that are more than what they think. In 2006, Luke Ahearn stated that “Game development is booming! In the past few years many books have been written, more information than ever is available on the internet, and many colleges are offering courses – even degrees – in game development.” In addition, Adams & Rolling (2007) stated that games are created to serve a purpose and they are related to the human desire for play and our capacity to pretend. Also video games are forms of art, thus aesthetics are part of their design. It’s also shown in some studies that computer gaming helps the brain, especially to the young at age, to develop their logic skills. “Computer-based video games can clearly facilitate students’ learning performance. This finding indicated that computer-based video game playing not only can improve participants’ fact differentiation/recall processes, but also promotes problem-solving skills by recognizing multiple solutions for problems.” (Chuang & Chen, 2009, p.7). In addition, playing computer games according to some research is beneficial...
