Atari founder: Use video games to teach and students will "never forget"

news.tes.co.uk reports that applying video gaming technology to education will allow students to learn ten times faster and retain knowledge “forever”, according to the latest education entrepreneur to emerge from the US.

Nolan Bushnell already has an impressive track record. As the man behind Atari – the home of Space Invaders – he pioneered computer gaming and gave Apple founder, the late Steve Jobs, his first job.

Mr Bushnell thinks that by making learning as addictive as video games he can dramatically reduce the time it takes to teach the curriculum.
