Who says gaming consoles have no educational value in them. Wada Junior High School in Tokyo has started special lessons for elementary school students about to enter junior high school using the popular Nintendo DS console.

These special classes at Wada Junior High School are dubbed “Dotera Junior.” In these classes, Nintendo DS consoles have calculation softwares on them which allows students to practice calculation techniques ranging from addition to calculation of fractions.
