Computers and AI technology are increasingly being used for online education. Can AI enhance the learning experience? Is this a positive or negative development.

To derive a double benefit from anything is considered a bonus, and

this

is especially the case when discussing leisure

activities

for children. The idea to fuse both education and entertainment into one activity is a goal of many educators; some would even believe that failure to do

this

makes the activity pointless. Drawing from examples in Sweden and reviewing games,

such

as Pokemon, I firmly believe that all

activities

should have an educational value. Leisure

activities

are a perfect time to take advantage of the receptiveness in a child’s mind, and some countries are adamant about

this

. Take Sweden,

for example

. For many years they have legally stipulated that all children’s toys sold in the country should have some educational value.

In addition

Therefore

, the advantage of incorporating an

element into toys is scientifically proven.

On the other hand

, across the UK, children were wasting their time collecting and learning the statistics of each creature on each Pokemon card. If,

however

, these cards had been intertwined with more educational data the child could have simultaneously gained a more practical education.

Due to

the child learning large swathes of irrelevant and useless

information

it can be argued that the time would have been better spent with real facts and figures on the cards.

To conclude

, scientific evidence from Sweden and fantasy games

such

as Pokemon with little educational value are two clear reasons why children’s leisure

activities

should have an element of learning involved.
