YES, I would invest in this venture. I think that this venture is accurately predicting what will become a massive market - the education-izing of current, modern, mainstream video games (those that aren't specifically developed as "educational games". And he accurately and concisely identifies the pain point in this space - the time/effort it takes for teachers to find effective ways to utilize these games to meet curricular outcomes. Having a user-curated space with lesson plans provided would be a huge help. I believe that video game companies would also invest heavily in this space as a means to get their games into the hands of more students. The pitch is a little lacking in its description of its solution to the pain point, as well as differentiating itself from other possible market contenders....but for a 1 minute elevator pitch, I'm definitely intrigued and this would be something I would look at more.
