History classrooms are full of narratives, but rarely full of decisions. Games change that, and designing them is a skill educators can learn.


Jeremiah McCall, Ph.D., joins WWN to walk through a practical approach to building analog games and choice-based historical texts for history classes.


The session will explore what makes a historical game work, why games are a powerful way to study history, and how to structure, guide, and assess student game-making projects, not just play finished ones.
