Do Distractions Affect Driving Video Game Scores?


For homeschooling this year John is doing public school at home through Ohio Virtual Academy (OHVA) which uses the K12 curriculum. It has been great for John. One of the advantages is the extra activities. Last week OHVA had a Learning Fair and as part of that students could display some of their school projects and/or participate in a Science Fair. John chose "Do Distractions Affect Driving Video Game Scores?" as his science fair project. As part of the project he ran trials with Thomas, Colleen, and Dad driving the Mario Kart on the Wii with no distractions, while talking, eating and using the cell phone. The picture is him explaining his project to one of the judges. Great Job John!
