Using Gaming to Gain Perspective

A somewhat random post, but I thought it would be good to share.

This is a great news link discussing an exciting game called MissionUS, which is an educational game about slavery. I think it would be a great addition to history lectures for elementary, secondary and higher education audiences, particularly for those who have had little to no exposure to African-American history. A great way to step into the shoes of American history, connected or not.

Let me know if you have played it and what you think.  Play the game!

If you would like more history information let me know and I can update this post to add more links.


Blessings,
