We wanted to create a game that removes students from devices and presents them with an opportunity to learn through experience. By putting students in the seats of politicians, they understand the importance of debate, discussion, and global dynamics that textbooks or lectures can't provide. Students run fictional countries, challenging them to manage governments, economies, military forces, and international alliances.
All students are engaged at all times. There's not a single moment where students aren't collaborating or competing. Aligned with Educational Content Standards, the Summit Educational Pack encourages critical thinking, collaboration, and decision-making under pressure. It's a hands-on lesson in civics, diplomacy, and leadership.
The Educational Pack is a modified version of our core game designed to allow entire classrooms to play. With several ways for the game to end, the instructor can choose which lessons and themes to focus on.
Summit Card Game makes games with one goal in mind: Igniting rational interest and engagement in the topics of politics and governance in a fun and engaging way. There's no hidden agenda behind our products. We encourage discussion of difficult topics through using games as a creation of safe spaces. In Summit, you're able to test your beliefs and understand others in a way deeper than just debate or discussion.
