One of the most educationally valuable aspects of Civic Mirror is its ability to offer students leadership roles in a safe, educationally-oriented way. Students can become Presidents and Prime Ministers, Senators and House Representatives, high-stakes businesspersons, lawyers and judges, and so on. The ratio between male-female leaders in the real world isn’t balanced (see the fantastic video below), and we hope teachers leverage Civic Mirror so that the girls learn to participate and lead just as much as the boys!
What People are Saying
The Civic Mirror simulation was quite possibly the most interesting educational activity that I’ve ever participated in. The trading, the real-life situations, the things that we accomplished, the arguments that we had and the conflicts we resolved. I feel this simulation really mirrors the world.
