Video games make you more creative!, says the research by scholars.

Good news to all the parents who are worried about their ‘video game playing’ kids. According to a new research by Michigan State University scholars, kids who play video games regardless of their level of violence tend to be more creative. The study, which included observing  nearly 500 12-year-olds stated that the more kids played video games, the more creative they were in tasks such as drawing pictures and writing stories. In contrast, use of cell phones, the Internet and computers (other than for video games) was unrelated to creativity, the study found.

Linda Jackson, professor of psychology and lead researcher on the project, said the study appears to be the first evidence-based demonstration of a relationship between technology use and creativity. About 72 percent of U.S. households play video or computer games, according to the Entertainment Software Association. The MSU findings should motivate game designers to identify the aspects of video game activity that are responsible for the creative effects, Jackson said.
"Once they do that, video games can be designed to optimize the development of creativity while retaining their entertainment values such that a new generation of video games will blur the distinction between education and entertainment," Jackson said.

Nearly 491 middle school students were surveyed as a part of MSU’s Children and Technology Project, which is funded by the National Science Foundation. The survey evaluated how often the students used different forms of technology and gauged their creativity with the widely used Torrance Test of Creativity-Figural. The Torrance test involved tasks such as drawing an "interesting and exciting" picture from a curved shape, giving the picture a title and then writing a story about it.
The research helped in arriving at another result which stated that boys play more video games than girls and further emphasized on the type of games they prefer. For example, boys were enthusiastic about games of violence and sports while girls liked games involving interaction with others (human or nonhuman).

Yet irrespective of gender, the research found that the habit of playing video games was related to greater creativity.  

How to: Improve your marks/grades at engineering classes ?

This might sound ridiculous for engineering grads! right? Yeah, still there are students who want their marks and grades to top the chart at least to boost their level of confidence and hit scholarships. It has been a part of student’s life to constantly complaint that we deserve better grades that what we have got, sometimes we also complaint that the professor has been partial to others, but in most of the cases it’s not true. There are ways to make a professor feel special about our answer sheets. Here are some tips to make changes to our grades.

1. Firstly you may ask your professor to give you a grade review, every time when the professor read a answer paper second time while evaluating, it means that he is giving a special attention to it, you must make your professor feel that your answer sheet need that attention. But before asking your professor for a grade review make sure that you have followed all the instructions given by the professor and in the syllabus, else you don’t have any basis to ask that extra consideration from him.

2. Make sure that the change in the grade is worth the risk that you are going to take because it involves your reputation with which you will demand for opportunities in future. Suppose the grade change is not going to do any good to your total average then better ignore the idea of changing your grade.

3. Mostly make an appointment with your professor to discuss your issues regarding the grades, you may also ask suggestions from him to avoid this kind of grades in future. You must avoid discussion with your teacher during class hours because he may be busy with other things and ignore your problem. The best thing is to take a private word with him.

4. Make necessary preparations for the meeting, provide evidences from notes or from books for answers your feel that you need more marks, by this you can make the professor to reconcile your grades.

5. The meeting must be very professional and mind the language that you are using don be very rude and give open statements like “I think you treat me unfairly” or “I deserve more marks than this” etc.

6. Make sure that this meeting will not affect your future exams and other papers that you are yet to receive.

7. Highlight specific areas and demand explanations as what went in wrong those areas, so as to avoid such kind of mistakes in future.

8. If nothing of the above mentioned steps work out the last thing that you could do is to complain to the higher committees, but this will work only in situations where the paper actually deserves because usually one professor would not make changes to the work done by other professor.


Good luck, for your better grades and marks. Make sure that all the above steps are just to improve your grades by maintaining proper respect and relationship with the concern.

Engineering mathematics study materials (most wanted topics)

Engineering mathematics is the topic for the day! Hello engineers is a space for all the engineering students to visit and get educational stuff for them to get better. There was some period where we had this bad practice of sharing pirated book and stuff, but now that part is clearly understood to be the most bad part of this blog. Still we get a lot of requests for the reader and students for some technical book and study materials! As we are planning to never do "pirated book sharing" mistake anymore. We had to do some special work to collect the study materials for you guys. These are some of the most wanted class room note and study materials for the subject "Engineering mathematics". We have not brought the complete syllabus of course, but these subject matter were demanded in particular.

As mathematics is one of the most important subject in engineering. Understanding the concepts of that is one most important work of an engineering student. So from that view and also from the context of the examinations these materials would be very useful for you! Hope you enjoy them too. We have provided proper links for downloading them.

Sample from the tutorial and screen shots: Differential Equations

The subject of ordinary differential equations encompasses such a large eld that you can make a profession of it. There are however a small number of techniques in the subject that you have to know. These are the ones that come up so often in physical systems that you not need both the skills to use them and the intuition about what they will do. That small group of methods is what I'll concentrate on in this chapter.

Tutorial for robot freaks: (Learn robotics online)

Robotics , Robotics and Robotics! Wow this is one common request we get from all most every reader of our blog. 4 out of 10 engineering students are found to be interested in this subject dealing with robots. Engineering students from all the majors including non electronics and non computer science too! This subject make wonder due to various reasons but the main reason might be the direct out come, the robots themselves! This robots seems to impress everyone right from a school going kid to a great PHD holder! May be we are feeling this love because of the dramas and movies we've seen in the past. Okay fine, What ever might be the background of this craze. We have tried to make a collection of good tutorials and materials for those crazy robot freaks.

1. What is a Robot? 

According to the Robot Institute of America (1979) a robot is:

"A reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or specialized devices through various programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks".

A more inspiring definition can be found in Webster. According to Webster a robot is:

"An automatic device that performs functions normally ascribed to humans or a machine in the form of a human."
