Love Geography - Here’s a Chance to Test Your Skills

If you love geography then we have a free online video game option that will give you a chance to test your skills. Head on over to Geosense and see what the site has in store for you.

You have two gaming options, a chance to compete against registered guests online or to just go in as a visitor. The visitor option brings you to a window where you can choose from five categories, the US, Europe, or the World, with an Advanced Map and even a scramble option that unveils the site a few letters at a time.

Warning number one: the game is both addicting as well as humbling, especially if you think of yourself as strong on the topic.

You won’t be looking for Viet Nam, but Vinh in Viet Nam. Points are awarded for both speed and accuracy.There is also chat area for those looking to connect to others with a love of the subject.

Warning number two: the opponents waiting to challenge you are nothing short of extraordinary. I tend to stick with the visitor option.

We have to give thanks to the folks at oedp.org for making us aware of this challenging little bugger. At the log in page of the site you also see a list of resources available with an education theme at the base of the page.
