Portal 2 will be used to teach in schools - Video Games Reviews, Cheats | Geek.com - 0 views

  •  
    "Video games are increasingly being used to educate children both inside and outside the classroom. Steam thought they'd jump on the bandwagon too, but they haven't created a new game. Oh no, kids will soon be able to play Portal in the classroom. Steam have created "Teach with Portals", a website that allows educators to sign up to gain access to an educational version of Portal 2 and the Portal 2 puzzle maker. The software uses realistic physics (just like the other Portal games) and inspires teachers and students to create their own puzzles, explore different worlds, and share custom lesson plans."
