ARGs Rock

[KellyAnn Bonnell]

Attention Gamers! This new ARG allows you to explore history while playing. What's an ARG you ask? If you are not familiar with Alternate Reality Games? Visit http://www.giantmice.com/features/arg-quickstart/ for a quick primer. Rediscovering Loyalty was written as research for a future academic course.

Why can't we see more ARGs in education? Well I'm guessing you had to look up the primer, so now you know what they are and can begin to create them for your classrooms.

Rediscovering Loyalty puts YOU into a storyline in which the history of Japanese American people during World War II suddenly becomes of utmost importance to you. You will need to figure out how to apply your learning of past historical events in order to help you and your team survive through the entire game.
