Description
History Adventures, World of Characters presents a fresh approach to history education, designed for the digital generation—bringing the pages of history to life.
History Adventures, World of Characters: Revolutions & Industrialization (1750-1900), presents a fresh approach to history education, designed for today’s digital generation.
This interactive, multimodal learning experience combines the latest in mobile entertainment with the power of narrative design—bringing the pages of history to life.
History Adventures foregrounds the power of story, narrativizing the experiences of people who lived in past centuries—in different epochs and locations around the globe. Students will witness the very real moments these very real people lived through, as if they were there. And via the empathy inspired by quality storytelling, students will feel the life or death stakes of decisions made in the moment.
Revolutions & Interconnections covers the Period from 1750-1900 through the lens of 5 amazing people living through complex flash-points in time.
Featured Characters include:
- Agent 355, (an enslaved woman... and an American Revolutionary War spy)
- Jiemba, (an indigenous Australian at Botany Bay when the British convict ships arrived)
- Fei Hong, (a Chinese family man, surviving the Opium Wars)
- Khari, (a native rebel resisting Belgian oppression during the misleadingly titled Congo Free State)
