I've used dozens of published games and simulations in my classroom, and I've written several large ones of my own. The former range from Avalon Hill's D-Day to Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu, from Abalone to GDW's 2300AD. I think all of these board, war, and role games are positive, rich environments for developing minds. As well, many games can be used to teach specific topics or skills.
I lead workshops at national game conventions and at smaller (more progressive) teacher conferences.
