But how can we teach civics and ethics? How are we already learning this? My new book, *We the Gamers*, explores *how we connect, communicate, analyze, and discover* when we play games. Games can be used in ethics, civics, and social studies education to inspire learning, critical thinking, and civic change. *We the Gamers* shares *a range of examples* including board and card games, online games, virtual reality and augmented reality games, and digital games like *Minecraft*,* Executive Command*, *Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes*, *Fortnite*, *When Rivers Were Trails*, *PolitiCraft*, *Quandary*, and *Animal Crossing: New Horizons*. *We the Gamers* also explores the obstacles to learning with games and *how to overcome those obstacles* by encouraging equity and inclusion, care and compassion, and fairness and justice. Featuring helpful tips and case studies, *We the Gamers* shows educators the strengths and limitations of using games in civics education. *Let’s imagine how we might repair and remake our world through gaming, together.* Take care, Kat ----------------------------------------- Dr. Karen (Kat) Schrier http://www.karenschrier.com www.twitter.com/drgamermom Associate Professor & Director, Games & Emerging Media program, Marist College Author, *We the Gamers* <https://gamesforcivics.com/> (Oxford University Press) Author, *Knowledge Games <https://jhupbooks.press.jhu.edu/content/knowledge-games>* (Johns Hopkins University Press) Editor, *Learning, Education, & Games <https://gamesforgrowing.com/> book *series (ETC Press/Carnegie Mellon) Author, Designing Ourselves <https://www.adl.org/media/13011/download> (Center for Technology & Society)
