Play the Global development game: identify the world’s countries and territories, rank them according to GDP then fingers at the ready for the picture round

 

Seth Dixon, Ph.D.‘s insight:

This game is not as simple as it may appear.  The first round challenges you to be able to recall basic facts, the second has you comparing countries while the third asks you about global current events.  Hopefully geography education around the world can get past that ‘1st round’ and into deeper content.  Good luck (Hint: use a computer with a mouse since locating the countries on the map is a timed activity).
