Computer game to cut down high school time to one year


It sounds crazy, but Atari’s founder Nolan Bushnell says that he has been developing a new video game called Speed to Learn that will revolutionize the education.

It is a cloud computing game where students get rewards if he/she finishes a task in a certain amount of time.

Mr. Bushnell says: "We've been in hundreds of classrooms with 40,000 kids. We are currently teaching subjects 10 times faster. We believe that when we roll this up to full curriculum we'll be able to teach a full career of high school in less than a year. And we think we'll be able to do that by the end of next year."

Bushnell says that with this system high school time will go under 1 year. Will see if this is possible.
