While there are other games that deal with entrepreneurship, GoVenture is very rich and deep.
👩🦲
I discovered that I have no business running a business, haha. It requires a lot of hard work, dedication, and research.

I appreciate how the simulation is scaffolded so students can learn in a simple simulation and then increase the complexity by adding more functions.
👩🦲
The GoVenture Simulation was a very unique experience, unlike anything I've done for school so far!

This is an amazing resource. My students were engaged and learning.

👩🦲
My class that includes GoVenture is the one that I am most excited to attend.

I learned how to think as a CEO.
👩🦲
It wasn't like learning from a textbook. We actually got to implement what we were learning. So that was really cool.
👩🦲
At first I didn't know anybody in my group and we didn't talk much to each other until the actual simulation had begun. As we progressed, we opened up to each other and had fun strategizing.
👩🦲
I would totally go through and play it again and I'm not even in the class anymore.
