LEARNING

Improve reading
Learn about science and history
Engage in critical thinking
Boost motivation to learn
Get introduced to new science careers

•Great STEM career motivator as students get to know amazing African Americans in science, technology, engineering and science.

•A good resource for Black History Month to encourage learning about African American scientists and inventors.

•Teachers, homeschoolers, parents and enrichment program directors will want to assign students the mobile game app to take advantage of the ubiquity of mobile devices in the lives of kids and teens today.

•After playing the game several times in an attempt to achieve the highest possible score, players will come to know each of the 30 science leaders and at least one of their accomplishments.

•To extend this new knowledge, curiosity and interest from playing the game, infuse curricula with follow up lessons in science, reading, writing, geography, history and life skills in an engaging way.

•To assist with with learning, KidPositive is releasing later this year the TellMeWhoIAm Science Leaders Learning Kit, and the Science Leaders mobile game will be a key resource in that curriculum for teachers and parents.

•Although the game can and should be played by the entire family, the primary target age group for educational purposes is 9-14.

ADDING NEW GAME LEVELS

We will add new levels to the game to make it increasingly fun and challenging as well as introduce new Tell Me Who I Am games in the future.
