Does anyone have examples of student made games (high school level) that explore social justice themes that I could use as examples in my classroom?

Thanks,
Arthur

"By the Watercooler" was developed by high school student Martin Schneider. It was one of the winning games from 2014 from our contest to prevent teen dating violence. Especially appropriate now since February is the National Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month!

Hi Arthur,

It's not exactly high school level or social justice, but iCivics has a lot of great games on how the democratic system works so could be some overlap. I do believe they are also working on high-school level curriculum so you could contact about that.
