Interstellar Investor
Interstellar Investor
Space, the final frontier, may actually be less intimidating to some of us than investing. In this educational game students will learn through the eyes of an intergalactic space crew about why investing is so important, how to start early and what to invest in. Oh, and they just might save the universe along the way from the likes of the evil Captain Dredd.
This program is easy to facilitate in a group or classroom, and is a very enjoyable learning experience for teens who might otherwise “space out” during a lesson on investing.
