My Take
I think the app is a highly engaging activity that fully immerses the learner into the study of American government. A definite must for Social Studies classrooms.
How I Use It
I used I-Civics to teach about the Amendemnts to the Constitution and the American Presidency. The games were highly engaging for all learners. Some are a little advanced but that makes it an excellent learning oppertunity. I also really liked the lesson plan downloads. They are very useful in the classrooom.
