I'm also hunting for similar designs, albeit at the college level (though not far afield from teen-level games & entertainment). My experience also tells me that just about any interactive game could have an educational dimension with slight adaptation. If you stumble across anything of this nature that may be applicable to military operations with some adaptation (e.g., air traffic control adaptable to military air operations; commercial transportation adaptable to military logistics; police work adaptable to urban operations; etc.), please also let me know. Interactive is the key, though. Thanks, Mark Tempestilli Captain, United States Navy U.S. Naval Academy email: tempesti@usna.edu cell phone: 410-320-9235

MSJANEW@aol.com 08/23/03 7:05 AM >>> I am researching game simulations that use instant messaging and/or email as a design component. Have you encountered anything cool you can recommend? I would love to see something like this with an educational dimension. Better yet--anything with a health/sports dimension. Thanks.
