Seems rather racist--------targeting the hispanic girls.

Quite frankly, my opinion of 'avatars' is that 'avatars' keep people in a fantasy world.

I wouldn't be surprised to find that after education with their videos that the problems increase amongst the targeted population.

"The students' progress will be evaluated three, six and nine months after they begin playing the game. Norris said if the game is successful for the girls, a similar game may be developed for youth of other ethnicities"

Sounds a little like psychological brain washing without knowing the results in advance. Socialism run amuck.

And just how do they measure 'progress'.
