Dembe usually keeps her postings to SL, but every once in a while she come across something educationally worth sharing on this blog. Today, Milamber T. showed her Third World Farmer. What a great educational game.
"3rd World Farmer, a game that puts you in the shoes of a family of farmers in one of the poorest areas of the world. This remarkable simulation lets you make the important decisions that will determine if your family will prosper, or starve.
Will you plant corn this year, or peanuts? Will you invest your few dollars in a new tractor, or pay off a local representative? Can you afford to send your children to school, or give them medicine? 3rd World Farmer lets you make the hard decisions!"
