\"\"City Settlers is a multiplayer city management game\/simulation intended to convey complex ideas embedded in enacted social play configurations and moves around sustainable development. Additionally, we are currently extending it through multimodal data platforms for supporting rich real time teacher and learner orchestration tools, as well as pathways to support cross domain learning connecting city development concepts with domains like civics and history.<\/p>\n

How to Get Involved:<\/h2>\n

\n
\n
The City Settlers team is excited to develop and test further iterations of City Settlers with multimodal analytics outfitted spaces and pipelines. This can likely ease and open up the pathway to exploring rich and complex ways that this data can be presented in useful manners to teachers across a variety of domains.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
