Today, I was fortunate enough to be featured in a cover story article in a local newspaper known as the OC Register. The article covers the current research being done in how video games support education and learning. I was interviewed by the writer at the Irvine BarCraft during the WCS America grand finals, and she also talked to various other esports fans (GHOSTCLAW, leafeator, and gary) as well as the BarCraft organizer (CableSC) about our involvement in gaming and ESPORTS. The article says I'm 27, but I'm actually 23 (oops).
The majority of the article is a brief overview on how games play a role in developing problem solving skills through gaming activities that a learner may find more relevant to their interests and be more engaged. I also had to do a silly photoshoot.
