    PurposeGames is a web site for learning and having fun at the same time. Not possible? Think again. It all started while playing a famous trivia game with friends and family, realizing how little I knew about Geography. I wanted to get better at it, but could not achieve this by simply studying an Atlas.

  • Once they’ve registered on VuSafe, teachers can search for and preview video clips from YouTube and other sources through the website, and they can add clips they think are relevant for use in the classroom to their school’s VuSafe video library.
