Dear Parents, This is Why You SHOULD Let Kids Play Video Games! | Avery Eun | TEDxValenciaHighSchool
Dear Parents, This is Why You SHOULD Let Your Kids Play Video Games: eSports - the new frontier of competitive gaming. The gaming community and competitive eSports have seen a tremendous hike in popularity and size in recent years. This is due to the fact that video games are incredibly interactive and actually promote socialization. Avery is one of many people who have found a sense of belonging in the gaming community through competing in and watching competitive gaming, mostly in the game "Overwatch". In this talk, he discusses the rise of video gaming and his experience being a part of his school's Overwatch team.
Avery Eun is a senior at Valencia High School, enrolled in both the International Baccalaureate and Valencia Technology diploma programs. He is a violinist in the school’s orchestra, a varsity swimmer, a former intern at The Boeing Company, and the president of the Model United Nations team, through which he has earned several research and debate awards. Despite having a resume that makes him seem like an over-achieving robot, he devotes a shameful amount of his time to one of his favorite activities: video games. Avery is a founding member of the competitive Overwatch team for his school’s eSports club. Being a part of eSports has played an integral role in giving Avery a community of friends and teammates, several networking opportunities, and an excuse to play video games on a school night. “I’m not playing, mom. I’m practicing for our next match!” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
