Learning Vs Teaching

So what do we learn from games or what do games teach us?....huh?I no in my experience,games have taught me a lot,for instance I now know that shooting ahead of a moving target is the way to go, or that one carefully positioned shot to the head is an excellent way to conserve ammunition!But seriously games teach us many things,some useful some not so useful.I mean i'm hardly likely to need to know about the advanced technologies an alien race possesses,well not for the foreseeable future anyways, but for example, say I need to stealthily gain access to a protected location,to do this I observe the guards patrol, and work around it.I observed a pattern and patterns help us to learn.I think it is not what a game teaches that is vitally important but how we learn from them.Games improve our learning process, making it easier and easier for us to assimilated new information and better our understanding of previously acquired information.Having knowledge in a specific area allows us to easily build upon it rather than starting from scratch each time.
