Description
OVER THE LAST TWO DECADES, THE TOPIC OF GENDER AND COMPUTER GAMING HAS GENERATED MUCH RESEARCH INTEREST. RESEARCHERS HAVE EXAMINED A NUMBER OF RELATED ISSUES, INCLUDING THE RELATIVE FREQUENCY WITH WHICH GIRLS AND BOYS USE COMPUTER GAMES, THE EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS OF GAMING AND THE TYPES OF EDUCATIONAL THAT APPEAL TO GIRLS. Most researchers have come to agree that although boys and girls can be equally skilled at using computers and computer games, boys are more likely than girls to choose to play with them, and children of both sexes consider both computers and computer games to be "boys' toys" (Cassell & Jenkins, 1998, p. 14).
