    ARE COMPUTER AND VIDEO GAMES HARMFUL OR

    NOT?
    ARGUMENT ESSAY (Outline)
    By Sabryna Elysa Poi

    Not everyone who plays computer or video games are unsophisticated or


    uneducated, it is actually the opposite. Computer and video games have often been
    frowned upon by parents as they believe it is a waste of time or that it will corrupt
    their children. However, this is not the case. Computer and video games are not
    harmful but instead can be educational to children.

    Firstly, it improves coordination and multitasking skills. When a player is


    playing a game, they are required to look at the screen, listen to the game audio and
    make physical movements at the same time. The player would then need to learn how
    to multitask. This would result in learning to memorizing the keys on the keyboard or
    memorizing the buttons on your game console. This can be extremely useful for your
    everyday life. Individuals who manage to obtain these skills of multitasking from
    playing games would greatly benefit them in the future. They would be able to run
    tasks without a hitch. They now know how to handle multiple things at once, if not
    even faster than others. Now, these individuals have better visual-spatial, better eye
    coordination, better hearing, and better reaction. Thus, playing games eventually
    creates muscle memories to do a number of things at once.

    Secondly, it enhances the brain’s speed and memory. At the beginning of


    every game, there will always be rules and instructions. Players would then have to
    read or listen to those rules and instructions and remember them throughout the game.
    Players would also need to master the keys of their keyboard. They would need to
    memorize what each key does in order to play the game. Players can implement these
    skills in their studies. These individuals would be able to understand information and
    instructions and do the work faster. Since they have memorized the keys on their
    keyboard, this would enable them to be able to type faster. This increases speed in
    finishing an assignment or such. Furthermore, players would be able to absorb and
    memorize information in class better. Those who play computer or video games can
    frequently process information faster than others.

    Lastly, it can improve one’s social skills. Computer or video games allow the
    players to communicate with various groups of people. It could be people from within
    your state, country or with people from the other side of the world. The most game
    requires players to communicate with other players either by chat or by voice call.
    This forces players to be more socially active, causing them to be more responsive.
    This would cause them to be more outspoken and less shy. Other than that, it would
    also teach them about teamwork and how to communicate and negotiate with another
    individual. Thus, playing games can help improve a child’s social abilities and teach
    them how to make friends. In conclusion, playing computer or video games are not as
    harmful to children as one might think. They can actually be very educational in
    different ways. They can also greatly benefit children in the future, in school or in
    their careers. Parents should instead encourage their children to play games that are
    suitable for their age. Playing games can help improve a child’s social abilities and
    teach them how to socialize.

    In conclusion, playing computer or video games are not as harmful to children


    as one might think. They can actually be very educational in different ways. They can
    also greatly benefit children in the future, in school or in their careers. They allow
    children to have the good hand coordination, the ability to balanced tasks, have a
    faster process of absorbing information, greater memory, and have better social skills.
    Parents should instead encourage their children to play games that are suitable for
    their age.
