This is already happening, though unintentionally and in the other direction. A recent study found a correlation between time spent playing computer and console games and good English grades among Finnish high school kids. The effect is surprisingly large: the grades of students who play more than 15 hours a week are on average 1.5 points higher on a six-point scale than those of students who don't play at all. On an anecdotal level, I can attest that some of the first English words my brothers learned were "load" and "save", for obvious reasons. http://yle.fi/uutiset/kotimaa/2011/11/pojat_kiilaavat_tyttoj... |
