Very neat little sim to use in several ways: -bond with any adult who drives -teach basic simulation principles -brainstorm "how to make this a game"?
-
That's funny -- I just had a student mention everyday life mechanics one could turn into a game, "like road construction or traffic patterns," that he's interested in somehow doing his end-of-course project on. :)

Oh cool! What does he make of this one?

Good point. I wonder why FB. Easy tool for adding and accessing content, if it's that widespread among their population.

I've seen lots of DH projects that attempted to build their own independent social networks. It's an incredibly steep uphill battle.

"Dr. Keller: I designed the simulation with two main goals in mind. First, it had to be an effective teaching tool. I wanted to take abstract concepts and theories that my students often had difficulty grasping, and make these vivid and clearly understandable. I wanted students to personally experience the challenges and complexities of world politics-to get off the sidelines and become players. Although the countries, domestic factions, and global issues in Statecraft are fictional, they have been carefully designed to provide maximum insight into parallel real-world dilemmas: as students grapple with the Orion slavery issue, the threat posed by the melting Ice Mountain, and the temptation to seize Sapphire Island's vast resources they come to understand the security dilemma, the collective action problem, two-level games, the challenges of cooperation under anarchy, and many other constructs not as theoretical concepts but as visceral truths that permeate their conversations with classmates, friends, and parents, and may even keep them up at night."

I like the concept of Statecraft, and took an early look at them. But boy, I wish they would stop spamming up my inbox with invitations to lunch etc. Quite pushy.

That's weird. Are they aggressively courting players for other purposes, or pushing ads?
