Games and science connection
Biology
- Games have changed over time. For example the consoles, controllers and graphics. They have changed by the shape, colors, pixels(HD)
- 8.D.1. Change Over Time: Recognize and describe that evolutionary change in species over time occurs as a result of genetic variation in organisms and environmental changes.
Chemistry
- Video games are either made out of plastic or metal because let's say cotton cant cant be used to
- ve 8.D.2. Chemical Properties: Cite evidence of
Environmental issues
- People who invented video games have made an impact on other people. For example the United States.
- 8.B.1. Environmental Impact: Recognize and explain how human activities can accelerate or magnify many naturally occurring changes.
Thermodynamics
- heat can be transferred because of the sun, a stove and a pot becoming hot from the stove.
- 8.B.1. Transfer of Heat: Describe and cite evidence that heat can be transferred by conduction, convection and radiation
Earth Science
- Highscores are like leaving a record. For example let's say someone got the world's high score on Pac-Man thats leaving a record.
- 8.B.1. Leaving a Record: Explain how sedimentary rock is formed (embedding plant and animal remains and leaving a record of the sequence in which plants and animals disappeared)
Physics
- A controller being charged by the system/console which is energy transporting to the controller.
- 8.A.4. Energy Transformation: Recognize and explain that energy can neither be created or destroyed; rather it changes form or is transferred through the action of forces
Astronomy
- Now that the earth tilts we have seasons.
- 8.D.3. Effects of Tilt: Recognize and explain the effects of the tilt of the Earth’s axis.
