Das Spiel im Geschichtsunterricht

History is often perceived by students as a subject of learning that is distant from them. It is one of the key experiences in history lessons when we succeed in showing students that history has something to do with themselves. Games, in particular, can evoke such touches. This volume presents numerous forms of games and many tried-and-tested examples that can be used to promote historical learning. In addition, a thorough analysis of the dazzling concept of "play" lays the groundwork for combining play, which is inherently free and creative, with the rigor of historical didactics. In addition to many revisions and updates, the new edition especially brings the field of computer games up to date. In addition, the challenges posed to the teaching of history by the competency orientation are consistently addressed.
