Description: Paterson, 1913A Labor Strike in the Progressive Era Author(s): Mary Jane Treacy Format: Paperback Publisher: WW Norton & Co, United States Imprint: WW Norton & Co ISBN-13: 9780393533026, 978-0393533026 Synopsis Paterson, 1913 is designed to be played during the time typically devoted to teaching the Progressive Era in the [url] history survey course. Set in America's "Silk City", Paterson, New Jersey, the game pits manufacturers, who try to keep Paterson's key economic engine running, against labour leaders, who demand a general strike to achieve better working conditions across the silk industry. In the middle of this conflict are townspeople who must decide whom to support and how to survive a labour struggle that seems to have no end in sight. From the award-winning Reacting to the Past community, Flashpoints is a new series of immersive role-playing activities designed to help students bring historical ideas and forces to life. Games are designed to take about one week of class time in a survey course, between two and four class sessions. Drawing on primary sources to craft arguments and inform debates, students develop critical thinking and historical empathy. Classroom-tested materials for students and instructors ensure a smooth "flipped classroom" experience.
