Three big factors will increasingly differentiate student outcomes: (1) development of students» self - motivation (2) effectiveness addressing learning barriers, like time - management, emotional
disruptions, and social pressures that affect learning even among advantaged children; and (3) students» higher - order capabilities like analytical, conceptual and
creative thinking, especially
as applied to solve real problems.»

disruption, to minimise their costs and in the long term focus their efforts more on
creative game design and less on adapting to new technology.»
