Revolutionary Learning
Interactive History Games for All Secondary
Social Studies Students
Wednesday, Oct. 24 at 4 p.m. Eastern Time
Peter Mabli
Presented by Peter Mabli
Assistant Director of Online Professional Development
American Social History Project

This edWebinar will explore ways for middle and high school students to “live” transformational moments in U.S. history. Our presenter will use the first Mission US game, “For Crown or Colony?”—available free to schools from WNET—to introduce effective ways to integrate “serious games” into U.S. history curriculum. The edWebinar will also focus on successful strategies for including English language learners and struggling readers in the full learning experience.
Peter Mabli, an expert in teaching U.S. history, will unpack ways to integrate gaming with document-based activities, writing prompts, and other resources in a range of learning environments. He’ll showcase ideas for independent, small group, whole class and flipped learning approaches while meeting rigorous content and instructional standards. Learn how technology-infused gaming can help students experience a more personal, memorable, and meaningful connection with the complex historical content, as they learn to think like historians, develop historical empathy, and discover the role of ordinary men, women, and young people in U.S. history.
