I am also an advocate for teaching basic design skills such as using the Adobe Design Suite. In a world where we are expected to create digital content, students should have the tools to be as creative as possible with that content. Yasmin B. Kafai and Quinn Burke agree with this viewpoint. In their article \u201cConstructionist Gaming: Understanding the Benefits of Making Games for Learning\u201d Kafai and Burke advocate for \u201cchildren\u2019s learning through making their own games\u201d (Kafai &amp; Burke, 2016, para.1). Students should be designing games for other students. This is the most innovative way to learn what students are interested in. This will drive the future of educational gaming. Unfortunately, we are simply not there yet.<\/p>\n<p>Since most students and teachers do not have the skills to program their own games and interactive activities, we must depend upon pre-made games and programs that have no learning curve and are readily accessible. Kelsey Sheehy, in her article \u201cHigh School Teachers Make Gaming Academic\u201d alludes to several examples where teachers integrate contemporary video games into their curriculum in order to pique interest in learning. Joel Levin, a second grade teacher in New York City, decided to introduce Minecraft as an educational tool in his classroom. He tells, \u201c\u2019There was a part of me that was scared. I didn\u2019t know if the kids would be able to grasp the game and what I was trying to do with it. I thought it would be too much of a distraction, but the opposite happened. It really all clicked. I was incredibly pleased with the results\u2019\u201d (Sheehy, 2011, para.12). Students today would absolutely love it if their teachers tried to integrate Fortnite into their curriculum. Though, integrating conventional video games into education is no easy task, let alone getting it approved by the administration.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few great game sites that require no learning curve to create and\/or play:<br \/>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.22.3&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/breedelsordo.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Kahoot-Sketch.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Poppins|600|||||||&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#b5d244&#8243; header_3_font_size=&#8221;36px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>KAHOOT<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|600|||||||&#8221;]Students absolutely love <a href=\"https:\/\/kahoot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kahoot<\/a>!
