{"product_id":"simulations-in-the-political-science-mark-harvey-9780367699765","title":"Simulations in the Political Science Classroom: Games without Frontiers","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book is premised on the assumption that games and simulations provide welcome alternatives and supplements to traditional lectures and class discussions-especially in political science classrooms, where real-world circumstances provide ideal applications of theory and policy prescriptions. Implementing such an active learning program, however, is sometimes daunting to overburdened professors and teaching assistants. This book addresses the challenges of using games and simulations in the political science classroom, both online and in person. Each chapter offers a game or simulation that politics teachers can use to teach course concepts and explains ways to execute it effectively. In addition, the authors in this volume make a proactive case for games and simulations. Each chapter offers research to evaluate the effectiveness of the activity and pedagogical design best practices. Thus, the book not only serves as a game design resource, but also offers demonstrable support for using games and simulations in the political science classroom. Aimed at teachers at all levels, from high school through college, the book may be especially appealing to graduate students entering teaching for the first time and open to new teaching and learning approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Harvey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367699761\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367699765\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.67d","brand":"Mark Harvey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44128299581695,"sku":"9780367699765","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dd8aeba8-3b05-4821-804f-f61fba60745f.jpg?v=1687458001","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/simulations-in-the-political-science-mark-harvey-9780367699765","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
