Earlier this week (Sept. 20, 2023) we were proud to present our Hive Mechanic system at the annual EdGames Expo<\/a>. This public event is the primary federal showcase of “game-changing innovations” across 50 federal government programs, and is organized primarily by the US Department of Education. It was a thrill to showcase our work alongside some of our favorite educational game designers, publishers like PBS games, and researchers with fascinating pilot projects in civic media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One contribution: We revealed our new map of the 30+ cities and towns<\/strong> that have used Hive Mechanic in the past year as part of our IMLS project with public libraries<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n
