Exploring Civic Education through Statecraft Simulations
Description: In this episode of the Civics Lab, we sit down with Joe Jaeger, founder and CEO of Statecraft Simulations, a project-based learning simulation for civics and politics. We delve into his entrepreneurial journey creating the platform, and how it teaches students the complexities and nuances of the political system. Joe connects his work to the contemporary political landscape, delving into topics such as the separations of power, the constitution, and the influence of social media. Tune in to the Civics Lab to listen to this conversation.
