To be frank, Ruth Chabay’s game is useless. It doesn’t help students learn electric field at all.
I agree with Kim. A game is a game after all. Whether it helps us learn physics or not needs further discussion. To that point, I really doubt. Second of all I suggest we should be cautious and alert to the so-called computer-aided physics teaching. It over emphasized the need of computers. Physics cannot be replaced by computers.
A game of “Egan soccer” occurs in Vernor Vinge’s new novel Rainbows End, chapter 14.
