Teaching Contemporary History with Czechoslovakia 38-89: Assassination
Original language description
Czechoslovakia 38-89: Assassination is a serious game on contemporary history. It features strong narrative, interactive comics and authentic audiovisual materials. It presents key historical events from different perspectives, including previously marginalized groups. The game develops abilities to comprehend and analyze sources of facts and create critical judgments. We have evaluated Czechoslovakia 38-89: Assassination in 24 Czech high school classes with students aged 15-19 in autumn 2013 and 2014. Seventeen teachers (8 males, 9 females) overall took part in the evaluation. For this study's purpose, we designed model lessons consisting of selected sequences of the simulation, students' worksheets and other teaching materials. During and after each lesson, we investigated teachers' and students' interest in the topic and their comparative assessment of model vs. "standard" lessons through questionnaires and non-participative observation. Each teacher also filled out a detailed final report after the evaluation. The goal of the evaluation was to test the acceptance of the game by teachers and students as a learning tool in a formal schooling environment.
