SimCity EDU
SimCity EDU is a new (beta) fantastic site for GBL (Game Based Learning) based on the popular PC game, SimCity. This is a safe site for students where they can go to create cities and strengthen their skills in many areas such as: Math, Science, Civics, Economics, and more. Also, this is a great place to find lesson plans based on SimCity aligned to Common Core Standards.
I highly recommend checking out SimCity EDU by clicking here!!!
Save your progress as you go along. It takes more than a day to build a huge metropolis, even if it's a virtual one. There is an open platform of sorts that allows players to share resources with each other. You won't get everything you need right at the start. As time goes by, you'll accumulate more and more resources and "supplies" for your city.
ReplyDeleteOne of the reasons why SimCity 2013 has received critical acclaim is because of its GlassBox engine. This technology allows for more simulation details. The graphics are vastly superior to those of previous SimCity games.
